The last time I asked, Blue Swirl was somewhat working on the port.
Has anything been improved since?
Thanks

I'm somewhat working on OpenBSD host support, not FreeBSD, but there
shouldn't be great differences. What's the status on FreeBSD, does
QEMU build and run?

conversation on the subject.

It builds, doesn't run. More like it runs and hangs.

The core is ~428M in size.

That command line won't work.  OpenBIOS doesn't support LEON, and the
last version of Debian for sparc32 was 4.0.

Try instead: "qemu-system-sparc -cdrom debian-40r9-sparc-netinst.iso
-boot d"

You can get a cd image from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/4.0_r9/sparc/iso-cd/ but the
installer may not be able to load packages from the internet because the
packages have been moved to archive.debian.org.

No response either from sparc32 or powerpc.  I386 also didn't work.
What gdb commands should be ran on the core and what qemu monitor commands
should I run?

Here. When someone else on the list has FreeBSD installed to a
SPARC64/UltraSPARC device and has installed qemu to it, then it will be easy
to see what I am referring to constantly.

More Sparc (or BSD) hackers are very much welcome.

Is there a way of verbose logging qemu while it runs? Maybe comparing the
FreeBSD output to the OpenBSD output will help.
Also, I can send you a list of the installed binaries, libraries, scripts,
and config files. Qemu on qemu has worked for me. This means that anyone
with a machine that has the CPU and memory to support a sparc64 guest could
install FreeBSD as a virtual sparc64 client/vm.

-d in_asm,op,out_asm. For user emulator, -strace may also be useful
though the output may be buggy.

Comparing should work, but perhaps it's easier if you compared
FreeBSD/i386 host output to FreeBSD/Sparc64 output for the same
binaries.

Unfortunately Sparc64 guest support is not complete enough for
installation of any OS.
