Hello,
I'm trying to install freebsd in qemu, but I can't even get it to boot.
Using the FreeBSD 5.2.1 iso just throws qemu into some sort of infinite
loop.
Booting from floppies(boot.flp or mfsroot.flp) allows me to type at the
bootloader prompt but the kernel fails to load due to an "input/output
error" in the bootloader.
I get the following in the qemu console
FLOPPY ERROR: fd_seek: try to read 0 51 01 (max=1 1 50 12)
FLOPPY ERROR: fd_seek: try to read 0 51 01 (max=1 1 50 12)
FLOPPY ERROR: fd_seek: try to read 0 51 01 (max=1 1 50 12)
FLOPPY ERROR: fd_seek: try to read 0 51 01 (max=1 1 50 12)
FLOPPY ERROR: fd_seek: try to read 0 51 01 (max=1 1 50 12)
Would be cool to install a couple of BSDs in qemu to play with.
Eventually my goal is to install the BSDs on my hard drive through
qemu..configure them , etc so then I can boot into a fully configured OS.
I also have a copy of xp installed on my hd. I tried booting that, but
xp stalls on loading agp.sys
Cheers,
Taras
