[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1717708] Re: QEMU aarch64 can't run Windows ARM64 iso's

[oscarbg]

thanks Peter..
Shannon,
using your launch arguments seems to go as you write..
nice progress..

any info on if running QEMU on Linux will be better right now than
Windows?

as I thought virtio-gpu was for Linux but I'm very new to QEMU so
probably bad knowledge..

also don't know how mature ARM64 platform emulation is right now and how
fast is progressing.. could be, that say next QEMU 2.11 could handle
Windows ARM64 installation and booting correctly via some patches?

thanks..

Title:
  QEMU aarch64 can't run Windows ARM64 iso's

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,
  recently Windows ARM64 ISOs have been posted on the internet..
  just checked with latest QEMU 2.10 release from 
  https://qemu.weilnetz.de/w64/qemu-w64-setup-20170830.exe 
  "h:\qemu\qemu-system-aarch64.exe" -boot d -cdrom 
h:\iso\16353.1000.170825-1423.RS_PRERELEASE_CLIENTPRO_OEMRET_ARM64FRE_ES-ES.ISO 
-m 2048 -cpu cortex-a57 -smp 1 -machine virt
  seems no video output..
  checked various machine options for example versatilepb (says guest has not 
initialized the guest)..

  so don't know if it's a QEMU bug or lacking feature but can support
  running Windows ARM64 builds (would be nice if you can add a
  Snapdragon835 machine type which is which first machines will be
  running..)

  
  note running a Windows x64 ISO with similar parameters works (removing -cpu 
and -machine as not needed)

  thanks..
