Subject: [Qemu-devel] Recent BIOS breaks SYSLINUX with -nographic
Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2007 15:50:27 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c1bf1cf0702051550va3d917aj78fb31a0586fcd1b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm attempting to boot a Linux disk image with the SYSLINUX boot
loader using the -nographic option. On the latest qemu CVS, the boot
loader hangs before printing "Ready" and booting the kernel. But if I
use the same version of qemu with the BIOS from 0.8.2, it boots just
fine.

For a simple test case, grab this Fedora boot disk:

  http://xenon.stanford.edu/~eswierk/misc/fc6-diskboot-serial.img.bz2

which I've modified to redirect output to the serial port, and run:

  qemu -hda fc6-diskboot-serial.img -nographic

Any clues would be appreciated.
