Don't have a ppc64 box handy? Never fear. It's possible to reproduce this bug on x86-64: (1) Download http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/libguestfs/1.0.43/1.fc11/ppc64/libguestfs-1.0.43-1.fc11.ppc64.rpm (2) Unpack it to get at the appliance (warning, this command will create some subdirectories under the current directory, so do it on /tmp): rpm2cpio libguestfs-1.0.43-1.fc11.ppc64.rpm | cpio -id (3) Run: qemu-system-ppc64 -hda /dev/null \ -kernel usr/lib64/guestfs/vmlinuz.fedora-12.powerpc64 \ -initrd usr/lib64/guestfs/initramfs.fedora-12.powerpc64.img \ -append console=ttyS0 -nographic -serial stdio Result: >> ============================================================= >> OpenBIOS 1.0 [May 21 2009 16:12] >> Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 2 >> CPUs: 1 >> Memory: 128M >> UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 >> CPU type PowerPC,750 Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0 built on May 21 2009 16:12 >> *** Boot failure! No secondary bootloader specified *** 0 > (How to exit the prompt? At this point I have to kill qemu) I tried it with qemu from today's git and it gets past this error (although breaks a little further along): $ ~/d/qemu/ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64 -hda /dev/null -kernel usr/lib64/guestfs/vmlinuz.fedora-12.powerpc64 -initrd usr/lib64/guestfs/initramfs.fedora-12.powerpc64.img -append console=ttyS0 -nographic -serial stdio >> ============================================================= >> OpenBIOS 1.0 [Mar 31 2009 15:35] >> Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 2 >> CPUs: 1 >> Memory: 128M >> UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 >> CPU type PowerPC,750 Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0 built on Mar 31 2009 15:35 >> [ppc] Kernel already loaded (0x01000000 + 0x00fa5be4) (initrd 0x01800000 + 0x01cfdf36) >> [ppc] Kernel command line: console=ttyS0 invalid/unsupported opcode: 1e - 03 - 0f (798c83c6) 00000000010082ec 1 invalid bits: 00400000 for opcode: 0b - 19 - 15 (2d746572) 0000000000009230 I'm going to report this second issue on qemu-devel now. (In reply to comment #1) > >> *** Boot failure! No secondary bootloader specified *** Reproduced this on rawhide x86_64 using your instructions This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle. Changing version to '13'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
