Hi Hoa, Thanks for the response. However, I haven't succeeded in trying out the packer arm plugin yet. I am also trying to use qemu-system-aarch64 to build the image, but I haven't figureed out the correct way. On the Gem5 website there are some prebuilt ARM images. Can you share how you build those images?
