I'm running manual tests for all architectures before each release. > In grub-shell that target passed the -M indy arguments to qemu. > qemu-system-mips64 is saying that that is an invalid machine type. > The available machine types are magnum, malta, mips, mipssim, none, > and pica61.

Are you sure it was ever officially supported? I assume the tests here were run on real hardware. > According to wikipedia the SGI Indy originally used R4k processors. > So would machine type mips be the one to use since its description > says "mips r4k platform"? No, that was a different, generic machine type, see [1]. > But then why wouldn't it already use that machine type like the > target "mips-qemu_mips"? It's possible the author of this change assumed that qemu supports the indy target which apparently it does not. > So can anyone familiar with this tell me an appropriate machine type of > the above listed to use instead of indy?
