Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
This configuration offers a cross-build of (a subset of) the build-bootstrap
|
|
package selection for the x86_64 architecture as emulated by qemu-system-x86_64.
|
|
It includes support for all the hardware emulated by qemu, a working udev,
|
|
kernel and userland support for TCP/IP networking, and more.
|
|
|
|
With qemu and the resulting build you can at least:
|
|
- boot the kernel and first stage initrd,
|
|
- execute a shell from the initrd,
|
|
- load the second stage from a CD-ROM,
|
|
- and install packages from the CD on a hard disk.
|
|
|
|
The packages included should be sufficient for native builds on the targeted
|
|
platform.

|
|
|
- Boot from CD with VGA text console:

-boot d

Hints And Known Bugs
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
- To use the cdrom image in qemu, create it after the build has finished:
|
|
./scripts/Create-ISO bbs-x86_64-qemu bbs-x86_64-qemu
|
|
|
|
- To use a hard disk in qemu, create it with e.g.:
|
|
qemu-img create /srv/qemu.hda 2048M
