FYI, we've done both ARM and MIPS testing using qemu, both in user emulation mode - where it's a fairly drop-in replacement for the gdb simulators - and in system mode. However, it doesn't really make up for testing on hardware. Not unless someone donates a lot of time to run good hardware certification tests on it, anyway :-) -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
