You are trying to virtualize SPARC on x86 so you need qemu-system-sparc. qemu-sparc would be for a user-mode emulation on a SPARC processor. I've done this before on CentOS 7 and it should definitely be possible to install qemu-system-sparc. yum should not have a problem figuring out the depende

To clarify: qemu-sparc is for running a single *program* written for a SPARC CPU, but the same OS as yours (in John's case Linux for SPARC). qemu-system-sparc is for running an entire virtual *machine* containing an OS for a SPARC CPU, such as a hard drive containing Solaris for SPARC or Lin

Mike, first thanks for the response. I'm trying to use the Fedora repos to accomplish this, Fedora 19 in this case. I get this: Error: Package: 2:qemu-common-1.4.2-3.fc19.x86_64 (Fedora-19) Requires: libiscsi.so.1()(64bit) Available: libiscsi-1.7.0-4.fc19.x86_64 (Fedora-19)

I really don't think CentOS with Fedora repos are going to work. I've never been able to do that. What is the version of qemu included in the CentOS 7.6 repositories? If it's not recent enough, I think you should just compile from source following the instructions on the qemu wiki. It's not that

[Qemu-discuss] Preloading shared library with libVirt while running QEMU

Hi, I am trying to preload two shared libraries while running Qemu using libvirt. To preload the shared libraries I have added an environment variable in the $domain.xml file with the following command: ``` virt-xml generic --edit --confirm --qemu-commandline 'env=LD_PRELOAD=/home/probir/Download
