Re: Updated Fedora ARM qemu images?
I cannot get qemu-system-arm to boot any of our F17 kernels, but here's what I did anyway. # Make a disk image: $ wget 'http://fedora.roving-it.com/rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar.bz2' $ bunzip2 rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar.bz2 $ virt-make-fs -s 2G -t ext3 -F raw --partition=mbr rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar disk.img Formatting 'disk.img', fmt=raw size=2147483648 $ ll disk.img -rw-r--r--. 1 rjones rjones 2147483648 Mar 23 05:47 disk.img $ virt-filesystems -a disk.img --all --long -h Name TypeVFS Label MBR Size Parent /dev/sda1 filesystem ext3 - -2.0G - /dev/sda1 partition - - 83 2.0G /dev/sda /dev/sda device - - -2.0G - # Extract the kernels from the tarball: $ tar tf rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar | less $ tar xf rootfs-f17-hfp-alpha1.tar ./boot/ # Try to boot it one of the kernels in the boot/ directory: $ qemu-system-arm -m 256 -M versatilepb -kernel boot/vmlinuz-3.3.0-0.rc4.git3.1.fc17.armv7hl -initrd boot/initramfs-3.3.0-0.rc4.git3.1.fc17.armv7hl.img -hda disk.img -serial stdio -vga std Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel. It just hangs at this point using 100% CPU with no output. The other kernels don't even seem to get that far.

I've set reply-to to the arm list since the responsible parties are all there. Sorry, still very green with vm wrangling. How do I take the rootfs tarball and make a qemu image I can use with libvirt? Or perhaps I'll just wait for the promised rpm installable images... :) -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA, Boulder Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane or...@nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.nwra.com -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
