[scott.alan.kline]

I am trying to use this on Ubuntu so I can compile the full_audit.so for samba but every time I try to start I get the error:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-sparc -hda readynas_compile_environment.qcow -nographic
/usr/share/qemu/openbios-sparc32: No such file or directory
qemu: could not load prom '/usr/share/qemu/openbios-sparc32'

I have looked everywhere trying to find a resolution and I can't find anything. I did look within the /usr/share/qemu and it has symlinks to a folder called openbios from all of the files begining with openbios- (like openbios-sparc32) but the actual folders they are linking to do not exist. I have done an update and reinstall of qemu but it is the same, I also removed and installed from a debian package, still the same thing.

Thanks in advance,
SK

I fixed that error now, I had to install the openbios package. But now that I have it installed here is what happens:

Any ideas?

Thanks again,

[airwofl]

Like the idea!

I have tried booting this within QEMU (v0.90) on Windows (XP) and a couple of things cropped up:

* with --nographic, it complains it can't open monitor device 'stdio' and doesn't start.
* without --nographic, it states that Hard Disk 0 is not a bootable disk.

Here's the command line (-L . required to point it to the bios file):

qemu.exe -hda readynas_compile_environment.qcow -L .

Any thoughts? Basically am in Windows at the moment can't reboot this second into Ubuntu to test it there.

[chirpa]

Only tested in Linux so far, we haven't tried Windows Qemu.

Scott, try this openbios-sparc32 build instead of the package: http://qemu-forum.ipi.fi/viewtopic.php?p=11539#p11539

[airwofl]

Don't worry - got it working on Windows in the end. Needed the openbios-sparc32 compiled for Windows.

You can get it from the QEMU website under the Windows download page - look for the SPARC binary.

[msetnarba]

is there in project the same for x86 ?

[chirpa]

1. Debian Live CD
2. apt-get install build-essential

[msetnarba]

shame on me........; I thought it was more specific and not so generic

thx

Hello all,
I'm trying to install an efficient compile environment on a Windows XP Box.
What works so far :
- QEmu sparc (from binary package)
- the "readynas_compile_environment.qcow" boots OK
- I can login on the guestOS as root
- Outgoing network from guest works OK on the overall
What doesn't work :
- I can't ping host OS from guest BUT a can ping the computer nextdoor on the physical net
- I tried "-redir" option on qemu command line to get guest OS sftp access to no avail.

I must say my XP box has got weird network settings (3 static IP on the same NIC, vmware virtual network adapters, IPv6 tunneling adapter), it could be the reason why guest OS cannot ping it.

If anyone had a solution that would allow me to put/get files/folder/archives on the guest, I would very much appreciate. Accessing guest file system from host would be prefered as it would be a bit more user friendly.

[jj69]

I answer myself :
smbclient from the guest does the trick if using gateway address.

My problem now is that "sarge" is quite old in the debian tree.
I can't find an apt mirror ...

[hno]

archive.debian.org

[jj69]

archive.debian.org

Well, thanx hno.
It does help but the packages I need are not there (vlc source).
I changed strategy and grabed source archives.
I'll start a new thread as I have some difficulties.

[derJan]

I'm having trouble running the qemu-Image on my Mac with "Q", the Mac qemu-Port (http://www.kju-app.org/).

It starts, but I can't log in (there is no prompt for the username).

Does anyone know how I can fix this? Perhaps it is like on some *nix-Systems that I have to switch to another console or something, how do I do this?

[jj69]

Perhaps it is like on some *nix-Systems that I have to switch to another console or something, how do I do this?

Indeed, switch to console 3 (ctrl+alt+3 on the PC, should be Ctrl+Opt+3 on the Mac).
You'll be able to log in.
