Do a "svn update" to pick up my latest changes and try the "BIOS"
version again. Let me know if you have any problems. I fixed a
regression caused by some changes that I made several months ago.
By the way, you can see OFW's early startup progress if you add "-serial
/dev/tty" to the qeme command line. That's how I debugged the problem.
Hi all,
I was trying to get OFW running on Qemu to play with it and have been
unsuccessful so far. My OFW is the latest Subversion as of yesterday.
When I follow the instructions for creating a BIOS [1] or a floppy [2] I
get a black non-responsive screen. Running `strace qemu-system-i386 -L
/usr/local/share/qemu -boot a -fda floppy.img` I can see that it's stuck
in some loop [3] but I can't tell what it is or how to fix it. I think
that Qemu itself works because I booted it with one of the linux test
images available for download from their site and it works fine. I'm
using a Thinkpad X200 with Ubuntu 12.04 and kernel version
3.5.0-18-generic and Qemu version 1.2.1.
Appreciate your help!
