Hello,
I try do emulate / virtualize a very old Sun Workstation Ultra 2 with a SunOs 5.8 with KVM/qemu. As host system I use a Ubuntu 17.10 with the qemu packages from http://ppa.launchpad.net/jacob/virtualisation/ubuntu. The qemu Version is: QEMU emulator version 2.11.0(Debian 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu1~ppa0)
I tried to start a virtual machine with the default bios (Version: 1.1.git20161120-2). But I get this error message: # qemu-system-sparc64 -nographic -drive unit=1,file=sun14_disk.raw,format=raw OpenBIOS for Sparc64 set_property: NULL phandle set_property: NULL phandle Unhandled Exception 0x0000000000000030 PC = 0x00000000ffd0f6b8 NPC = 0x00000000ffd0f6bc Stopping execution
I see that was some new commits at the git repository, so I clone the repo an build a new openbios-file (https://www.openbios.org/OpenBIOS#Building_OpenBIOS) an start the vm with this new bios. But I get also a error message: # qemu-system-sparc64 -nographic -drive unit=1,file=sun14_disk.raw,format=raw -L . -bios openbios-builtin.elf Unhandled Exception 0x0000000000000030 PC = 0x00000000ffd21368 NPC = 0x00000000ffd2136c Stopping execution
Is it even possible to emulate a Sun Sparc Ultra 2 with a SunOs 5.8 (64bit)? SunOS satnw014 5.8 Generic_108528-06 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2
Best regards Maik
