If somebody else's kernel boots but yours does not then the chances are very high that there is a problem with your kernel (probably a wrong config) which you'll need to debug the same way you'd debug this kind of misconfiguration on real hardware. Connecting an ARM gdb up to qemu and singlestepping kernel startup may be helpful. > Even decompressing kernel print itself is not coming and hence > I suspect something is wrong with wither kernel or QEMU. If there's no output of the "Uncompressing the kernel" message this is almost certainly a kernel configuration or compilation problem -- QEMU's serial port code is pretty heavily tested. (Why are you using the 11MPCore model anyway, just out of interest?) -- PMM
