[Qemu-devel] Solaris SPARC guest on QEMU

Hi,

   I would like to use QEMU to run a guest Solaris 8/Sparc machine.

   Seems that openbios is missing something that Solaris needs to complete the 
boot process. I posted a entry on the qemu users forum but got no replies. The 
boot seems to be failing after the initial boot program is loaded from the 
disk, it seems unable to find the second stage boot program, so it is probably 
something related to how the second stage should identify the boot device.

   The Sun OBP (For sun4v...) and bootprog sources are availabe, but they are 
writen on some language I never heard of before (Forth).

   I could not find any parameters to debug the openbios boot process or the 
solaris bootprog.

   Any sugestions?

Best Regards,
Luis
