Jason,

Below are the results of the regression tests I ran:

***** build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/minor-timing: passed.
***** build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/o3-timing: passed.
***** build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/o3-timing-checker: passed.
***** build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/simple-atomic: passed.
***** 
build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/simple-atomic-dummychecker: 
passed.
***** build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/00.hello/arm/linux/simple-timing: passed.
***** 
build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/03.learning-gem5/arm/linux/learning-gem5-p1-simple:
 passed.
***** 
build/ARM/tests/opt/quick/se/03.learning-gem5/arm/linux/learning-gem5-p1-two-level:
 FAILED!

The last test failed with the following error (Do you know how to resolve it ?):

File 
"/home/senni/Partage/shared_folder_gem5/gem5/gem5_from_mercurial/gem5/tests/testing/../../configs/learning_gem5/part1/two_level.py",
 line 93, in <module>
    system.cpu.icache = L1ICache(opts)
NameError: name 'L1ICache' is not defined


For the fs mode regression tests, it fails with the following error:

File 
"/home/senni/Partage/shared_folder_gem5/gem5/gem5_from_mercurial/gem5/configs/common/SysPaths.py",
 line 69, in system
    raise IOError, "Can't find a path to system files."
IOError: Can't find a path to system files.

I have this error even if the $M5_PATH variable is correctly set.
