Hi Mark,
[adding the OpenBIOS mailing list, hoping to get some more feedback]
by the way, currently Jean Michel has to use the proprietary OBP.
There seems to be a problem with loading the SunOS 4.x under OpenBIOS:
$ sparc-softmmu/qemu-system-sparc -L pc-bios -nographic -hda disk-solaris-1.1.2
Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 32
CPUs: 1 x FMI,MB86904
UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0 built on Aug 19 2012 13:36
Type 'help' for detailed information
Trying disk...
Not a bootable ELF image
Loading a.out image...
Loaded 7680 bytes
entry point is 0x4000
bootpath: /iommu/sbus/espdma/esp/sd at 0,0
Jumping to entry point 00004000 for type 00000005...
switching to new context:
Unhandled Exception 0x00000007
PC = 0x00401a04 NPC = 0x00401a08
Stopping execution
Is the OpenBIOS guess correct and SunOS 4.x actually does have an a.out loader?
Artyom
