Booting Debian in qemu-system-alpha

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz@physik.fu-berlin.de>]

Hi!

Has anyone had any success recently booting Debian on qemu-system-alpha?

I just built qemu-system using the alpha-softmmu target from git and tried
to run Debian's Alpha port but the output hangs very early:

root@nofan:/local_scratch/alpha-system> ./qemu-system-alpha -m 512 -nographic -drive file=disk.img,media=disk,format=raw,index=0 -L pc-bios/ -kernel vmlinux -append ‘console=ttyS0’ -initrd initrd.gz -net nic -net user -drive file=debian-10.0-alpha-NETINST-1.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom
