32-bit and 64-bit x86/x64 pre-compiled QEMU 0.8.2 binaries for Solaris
10 / 11 / OpenSolaris

Should run on Sol10-x86 FCS aka 03/05 or higher (has been built under
Solaris 10 03/05 FCS).
More details later, on request.
Will not require LD_LIBRARY_PATH through both -R and -L plus crle (had
been required for 64bit vs. 32bit libgcc to avoid conflicting versions) :


# crle -c /opt/SUNWqemu/var/ld/ld.config

Configuration file [version 4]: /opt/SUNWqemu/var/ld/ld.config
  Default Library Path (ELF):   /opt/SUNWqemu/lib:/usr/sfw/lib:/lib:/usr/lib
  Trusted Directories (ELF):    /lib/secure:/usr/lib/secure  (system
default)

Command line:
  crle -c /opt/SUNWqemu/var/ld/ld.config -l
/opt/SUNWqemu/lib:/usr/sfw/lib:/lib:/usr/lib

# crle -64 -c /opt/SUNWqemu/var/ld/64/ld.config

Configuration file [version 4]: /opt/SUNWqemu/var/ld/64/ld.config
  Default Library Path (ELF):

  Trusted Directories (ELF):    /lib/secure/64:/usr/lib/secure/64

Make sure you have
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/qemu/downloads/kqemu-osol-1.3.0pre9-v0.2.tar.gz
installed  :-)


New features:
============
* provides qemu-system-i80586 target identifying itself with cpuid of
586 (i.e. for WinNT3.10 guest support)
* improved RAS  (runs on all hosts equal or higher Sol2.10_FCS; no
LD_LIBRARY_PATH trouble; no crashing SiSoft-Sandra inside Win98SE guest;
strongly enhanced sources wich much improved sparc host compatibility)
* IDE-UDMA patch derived from Juergen Keil's original patch  (Solaris
x86 guests can now be booted with dma enabled, out of the box as default
/ no grub cmd line)
* Improved support for booting the Solaris10/11 amd 64 kernel 
(Attention: still crashes when in combination with the wrapped kqemu
module, but works okay w/out kqemu)
* New sdl lib
* delivered as SVR4 pkgadd package
* /opt/SUNWqemu/bin/$ISAEXEC instead /opt/SUNWqemu/[32|64]

Sorry, the new version doesn't work with kqemu very well.
This affects the old and the new src equally.
The compiler or build env seems to be the problem.

Please continue to use the previous version that can still be obtained
from
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/qemu/downloads/qemu-osol-0.8.2-bin-x86.tar.gz

Sorry for any inconveniences.
