That patch was moving in the right direction, but I think there were two problems with it. First, the right way to pass a parameter is via a property field (as Peter explained). Second, IMO the parameter should be the CPU model string to instantiate and not the Pi version number. > Or should I wait > for Alistair's patch (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017- > 10/msg04153.html)? Alistair's patch doesn't actually help you as far as I can see, since it doesn't change what CPU bcm2836 instantiates. I think it just means that if the user specifies a different CPU type they get an error rather than being silently ignored. Andrew
