Hi, As the Sparc64 support is not complete, I thought I'd ask here before reporting a bug.
Trying to boot a Debian netboot cd image for Sparc with Qemu 0.12.5: # qemu-system-sparc64 -boot d -cdrom debian-505-sparc-businesscard.iso -nographic -hda sparc.img OpenBIOS for Sparc64 Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 0 CPUs: 1 x SUNW,UltraSPARC-II UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0 built on Dec 6 2009 11:16 Type 'help' for detailed information [sparc64] Booting file 'cdrom' with parameters '' Not a bootable ELF image Not a Linux kernel image Loading a.out image...
