Ian, I have tried with your command:
qemu-system-arm -M vexpress-a9 \ -cpu cortex-a9 \ -kernel /export/armmp/vmlinuz \ -initrd /export/armmp/initrd.gz \ -append console=ttyAMA0,115200 \ -dtb /export/armmp/vexpress-v2p-ca9.dtb \ -net nic,model=lan9118,netdev=net0 \ -netdev user,id=net0 \ -monitor stdio I have also tried without the last three lines, with -append root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 both with and without the console parameter, and -append root=/dev/mmcblk0 (didn't expect this to work - but worth a try). None of them give me anything but a blank qemu window. The qemu monitor says the process is running, but no indication that it's doing anything. I also remounted the qemu disk and verified the initrd, vmlinuz and .dtb files matched those downloaded, just in case I corrupted something along the way. There's got to be something very basic I'm missing here, but I have no idea what it is.
