[Qemu-devel] Mainstone II

[Макс Волошин]

Hello, could you tell me how to run Linux on QEMU Mainstone II machine? I
took kernel from there:
http://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/armlinux/people/xscale/mainstone/, but I do
not know what to do with rootfs (it is jffs2). How to add it into memory
bank to be visible to Linux inside QEMU? As for now I get stuck on SCSI
driver (2.4) or AC97 Codecs (2.6). P.S. Do you know what linux distros can
be run on Mainstone?

Hello,

I have just added networking support for the Mainstone II. Since the 
source its not in cvs, do I resend a new Mainstone patch or just a diff 
from the one I sent out earlier?

TIA,
Armin

I think a new patch will make it easier for people to try it out
before it ends up in cvs.

Are there more software-accessible peripherals on this board? Is there
a public kernel tree that supports this board (or would the
"mainstone" Intel HCDDBBVA0 support from mainline work)? Can
pflash_cfi01.c or pflash_cfi02.c be used to implement the cfi flash?
Regards

I will need to look into it.
