[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1252270] Re: installing NT4 on MIPS Magnum/Jazz asserts

[Darkstar]

Indeed the crash doesn't happen in current git anymore. Setup still
doesn't copy anything off the CD (hangs on the first file) but at least
the crash is fixed and formatting the harddisk works now.

I'll investigate the other issue and maybe open up a new bug for that.

This bug here can be closed. Thank you!

Title:
  installing NT4 on MIPS Magnum/Jazz asserts

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  While installing NT4 on MIPS Magnum (Jazz), when the NT Installer
  tries to format the harddisk, QEmu 1.6.1 crashes with an assertion:

  qemu-system-mips64el: g364: invalid read at [0000000000102000]
  qemu-system-mips64el: hw/scsi/scsi-bus.c:1577: scsi_req_data: Assertion 
`req->cmd.mode != SCSI_XFER_NONE' failed.
  ./nt4mips.sh: line 3: 20336 Aborted                 (core dumped) 
./qemu-system-mips64el --machine magnum -m 64 -net nic -net user -hda nt4.dsk 
-cdrom NTWKS40D.ISO -global ds1225y.filename=nvram.bin -global 
ds1225y.size=16384

  This assertion also occurred with the stock Ubuntu version of QEmu
  (1.5.0 (Debian 1.5.0+dfsg-3ubuntu5)) which I tried before.

  Note that to even get this far, you need the patch mentioned in
  BUG1245924, otherwise QEmu 1.6.1 won't even start/boot at all

  NT4 installation guide I'm following:
