I'd like to adapt the existing linux-yocto standard/base branch, and build up on existing qemuarma9 support. I've included detailed patch fragments below, so that you can replicate the current state of my work at your end. I've performed the following steps till date, but unfortunately get a qemu ram / rom out of memory address error after doing all this. Must be because of an incorrectly mapped KMACHINE. The vexpress device doesn't support PCI, IDE or SCSI, only microsd card or ram devices, so the boot method should use an initrd file, for the root filesystem, as described here. https://wiki.linaro.org/PeterMaydell/QemuVersatileExpress Step 01.00: Clone linux-yocto-3.8 locally, create local meta branch, create local standard/qemuarma9 branch, tracking the master branch. Make the following modification to the qemuarma9-standard.scc file.
