Hi, I have a qemu-arm setup with busybox which I normally use to test my kernel changes. I use this command to boot it:
QEMU-ARM$ qemu-system-arm -M vexpress-a9 -m 1024M -kernel ../KERNEL/linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage -dtb ../KERNEL/linux/arch/arm/boot/dts/vexpress-v2p-ca9.dtb -initrd rootfs.img.gz -append "console=ttyAMA0 root=/dev/ram rdinit=/sbin/init ip=dhcp" -nographic -smp 4 This includes, my own custom kernel and rootfs build. For rootfs I use busybox and create cpio image and use it as initrd. But, every time, if I have to copy some files inside qemu, I need to create create roofs image. This is painful. So, now I am exploring how to transfer files from my ubuntu pc to qemu-session using "ssh". I know this is possible, but I am still not successful, and bit lazy to explore these. I am sure, many of you people would have explored already "how to use ssh over qemu" and found a easy method. So, if anybody have easy setup please share with me. I could see that after adding "ip=dhcp" I get the eth0 interface like this: / # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 52:54:00:12:34:56 inet addr:10.0.2.15 Bcast:10.0.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1180 (1.1 KiB) TX bytes:1180 (1.1 KiB) Interrupt:22 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) But I could not ping it from ubuntu PC.
