[Qemu-devel] Kernel panic while executing "exit" in MIPS Linux target on I32 Linux host

[Neo]

hi,

I am running qemu (latest version from CVS) on my I32 Linux desktop to 
emulate the MIPS arch. While running the mips-test-0.1.tar.gz 
<http://www.qemu.org/mips-test-0.1.tar.gz>, everything works fine except 
executing the "exit" command. I got the following information.

BusyBox v1.01 (Debian 1:1.01-4) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ # help

Built-in commands:
-------------------
       . : break cd chdir command continue eval exec exit export false
       hash help let local pwd read readonly return set shift times
       trap true type ulimit umask unset wait

~ # exit
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

Is it a bug or not?

Thanks,
Neo
