Hello, I believe I have solved the underlying issue with the attached
patch. Verified against the behavior of an actual i440FX IDE controller.
See https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-
devel/2022-05/msg04229.html .
** Patch added:
"0001-ide_ioport_read-Return-lower-octet-of-data-register-.
I have to admit that my time budget for IDE is quite low, so I will be
unable to look into this.
If you'd like to help debug it further and you have the time, you can
try building QEMU 6.0 (RC0 or so, something quite modern) and enabling
the IDE tracing options and trying to boot Solaris as you ha
I also have this problem. On both QEMU 5.2.0 and QEMU 3.1. The situation is
still the same as the original report.
For Solaris 8 the following configuration causes an error when the installer
attempts to boot:
-m 256M -display gtk -monitor stdio -hda Sol8.qcow2 -cdrom sol8_x86_install.ISO
-boot

Sorry, I don't understand.
The two fixes you mentioned were committed and released as part of
0.6.0, so does this work with QEMU version 0.6.0 or not?
If it works in 0.6.0, can you tell me the first version where it stopped
working? I assume it isn't currently working in 2.6.2, so it broke

yes, 10/11/12 beta work without a problem(and really fast), 8/9 have been
reported to work at least since 0.6.0. with the "ide" fix committed to that
version.
The problem seems related with "ide" emulation and real mode drivers, so I
don't think an older BSD can reproduce.
I will test if an older

I don't have a copy of Solaris9 to test with, so I doubt I can work on
trying to reproduce this. Is there any possibility to reproduce a
