Hi Rubel,

You can download a disk image with ubuntu 18.04 using the following link:

http://dist.gem5.org/images/x86/ubuntu-18-04/base.img

We have also uploaded some linux kernel binaries and associated kernel
config files, which you can download from the following links:

http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.14.134
http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.14.134.config

In the above links, replace vmlinux-4.14.134
<http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.14.134>  with any kernel
from this list:  vmlinux-4.19.83
<http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.19.83>, vmlinux-4.4.1
<http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.4.189>*86*, vmlinux-5.2.3
<http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-5.2.3>, vmlinux-4.9.186
<http://dist.gem5.org/kernels/x86/static/vmlinux-4.9.186> to download that
kernel binary or the kernel config file used to build the kernel.

In order to find out which kernel versions work on which gem5 configs, you
can refer to the status plots shown at the bottom of the following tutorial:

https://gem5art.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/boot-tutorial.html

Please, note that these status plots are generated using gem5 commit:
d40f0bc579fb8b10da7181.

We will soon release more details on the methodology (gem5art: libraries
for artifacts, reproducibility and testing) used to generate these plots.

Regards,
Ayaz
