You should try to boot the system on the serial port to catch more messages. You should add console=ttyAMA0 to the kernel arguments, and add -nographic to the QEMU arguments. > > [ 0.000000] [<bf000480>] (scsi_finish_command+0x0/0xcc [scsi_mod]) from > > [<bf0 > > 07808>] (scsi_softirq_done+0x10c/0x128 [scsi_mod]) > > [ 0.000000] r6:cec694c0 r5:00000005 r4:00000bb8 > > [ 0.000000] [<bf0076fc>] (scsi_softirq_done+0x0/0x128 [scsi_mod]) from > > [<c010 > > bafc>] (blk_done_softirq+0x78/0x9c) > > [ 0.000000] [<c010ba84>] (blk_done_softirq+0x0/0xd4) from [<c0047680>] > > (__do_ > > softirq+0x60/0xd4) > > [ 0.000000] [<c0047284>] (__do_softirq+0x0/0xd4) from [<c0047680>] > > (irq_exit+ > > 0x44/0x4c) > > [ 0.000000] r6:00000000 r5:c0289f78 r4:0000001b > > [ 0.000000] [<c004763c>] (irq_exit+0x0/0x4c) from [<c002404c>] > > (__exception_t > > ext_start+0x4c/0x64) > > [ 0.000000] [<c0024000>] (__exception_text_start+0x0/0x64) from > > [<c00248a4>] > > (__irq_usr+0x44/0xa0) > > [ 0.000000] Exception stack(0xcf561fb0 to 0xcf561ff8) > > [ 0.000000] 1fa0 00000000 00000008 > > 00000 > > 02e 00000035 > > [ 0.000000] 1fc0: beeb3362 0005781d 00000001 00000016 00059f70 beeb336d > > 00059 > > a40 0005aa18 > > [ 0.000000] ife0: 0006ffd6 beeb27d0 00023890 00024968 60000010 ffffffff > > > > [ 0.000000] r6:0000001 r5:f1140000 r4:ffffffff > > [ 0.000000] Code: e1a01000 e5932000 e59f06fc ea00002f (e5963358) > > [ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt > > > > In order to get this, I ran the system with: > > qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -kernel vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-versatile -initrd > > initrd.img-2.6.26-2-versatile [1] -hda hda.img -hdb swap.img [2] -cdrom > > debian-501-armel-DVD-1.iso [3] -m 256M -append "root=/dev/sda rw mem=256M" > > Installing the system directly on the emulated hard-drive without any partitions looks strange. I doubt it will make any change, but it may worth trying an installation using partitions. What worries me more is the mem=256M argument. Why have you adding it here? Could you try without it?
