/usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc -m 512 -nographic -hda kvm/debian_lenny_powerpc_standard.qcow2 qemu-system-ppc: pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "efi-ne2k_pci.rom" >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> set_property: NULL phandle >> ============================================================= >> OpenBIOS 1.1 [May 26 2013 13:52] >> Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 2 >> CPUs: 1 >> Memory: 512M >> UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 >> CPU type PowerPC,750 Actually I'm trying to boot KVM from the powerpc board having ubuntu 13.10 on it,so i need to provide the -nographic option.
