* Package name : gxemul Version : 0.6.0.2 Upstream Author : Anders Gavare * URL : http://gavare.se/gxemul/ * License : BSD-3-Clause Programming Lang: C++ Description : machine emulator for multiple architectures GXemul aims at emulating complete machines with enough hardware emulated to run real unmodified operating systems. The emulation of these machine types is good enough to run a least one guest operating system: . ARM-based machines: * CATS (NetBSD/cats, OpenBSD/cats) * IQ80321 (NetBSD/evbarm) * NetWinder (NetBSD/netwinder) MIPS-based machines: * DECstation 5000/200 (NetBSD/pmax, OpenBSD/pmax, Ultrix, Linux/DECstation, Sprite) * Acer Pica-61 (NetBSD/arc) * NEC MobilePro 770, 780, 800, 880 (NetBSD/hpcmips) * Malta (NetBSD/evbmips) * Algorithmics P5064 (NetBSD/algor) * SGI O2 (aka IP32) (NetBSD/sgi) (enough for root-on-nfs) PowerPC-based machines: * IBM 6050/6070 (PReP, PowerPC Reference Platform) (NetBSD/prep) SuperH-based machines: * Sega Dreamcast (NetBSD/dreamcast) (enough for ramdisk userland) . Other machine types and architectures are emulated less completely. See the documentation in the gxemul-doc package for the exact details and guides to installing guest operating systems. I plan to maintain this package myself. It was previously packaged in Debian and removed due to bugs and an inactive upstream; upstream is now active again.
