Thanks for your answer Clint, I know how to move the files, so the thing that I should do is:
- Follow the steps from here Using linux-dist to Create Disk Images and Kernels for M5 to create my disk image - Add the binaries using this commnad /bin/mount -o loop,offset=32256 /z/foo.img /mount/point - Submit the image and point the configuration py file to the image file To run the simulation do I still need to install the vmlinux in the machine that is running the simulation?. Thank you so much for your help. 2008/11/12 Clint Smullen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > If you install Linux into a virtual machine (Bochs, VirtualPC, VMWare, etc.), > you will have root privilege and will be able to mount the disk image within > the virtual machine to make changes (albeit using sudo mount ...).
