Hi again,
After further culling the target list, I was able to install qemu on my
sun4u host.
However, running it, I get a bus error. See below for details:
$ /opt/qemu-cvs/bin/qemu -m 128 -cdrom
~/KNOPPIX_V5.1.1CD-2007-01-04-EN.iso -vnc :1
Bus error
For some reason, Sparc Linux host is not working. I think Sparc Solaris is OK.
Yes, I do recall that I was able to get this working on Sparc Solaris.
Anyway, when I get more time, I will have a better stab at debugging
this. I got a start on this today, and here is a bit of cut and paste
that may or may not be insightful. The address for env1 looks questionable:

HTH,

PS: couldn't this also be debugged from within qemu VM running Debian
Sparc, for those that don't have access to a real machine? I got a start
on this today as well (because I don't always have access to the Sun
Ultra box). Seems stable, and I was able to get a start on a compile,
that is currently still going.
