Hi saras, You are using a fully-fledged ubuntu distribution. May I suggest you a more lightweight solution?
Please have a look at the ubuntu18.04 option in https://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/fullsystem/guest_binaries Kind Regards Giacomo From: saras nanda via gem5-users <gem5-users@gem5.org> Date: Friday, 15 December 2023 at 23:48 To: The gem5 Users mailing list <gem5-users@gem5.org> Cc: Kaustav Goswami <kggosw...@ucdavis.edu>, muke...@protonmail.com <muke...@protonmail.com>, saras nanda <sarasnand...@gmail.com> Subject: [gem5-users] Re: Full System Simulation on ARM system takes too long Even after hours of booting even 2-3 days consecutively my image wouldn't reach the login prompt to make the checkpointing it would reach [ OK ] Started Create Volatile Files and Directories.

It is expected that it’ll take 10ish hours to boot Ubuntu in this case. /sbin/init starts the default services for Ubuntu via systemd ( [ 0.314602] systemd[1]: System time before build time, advancing clock.). This takes a lot of time. If you want to load the disk image faster then boot the disk image using kvm or atomic cpu and then on the first m5 exit switch to timing cores. Alternatively you can pass init=/bin/bash or something to the kernel which will skip systemd (although it’ll mean that you’ll only load the kernel, and none of the Ubuntu services). Thanks, Kaustav.
