booting rootfs with linux-image-vexpress in qemu 1.0~ from harddisk image
Hello Mailinglist,
I'm not sure, if this is worth a bug report, but recnetly I tried to
boot a multistrapped wheezy armhf system in qemu from squeeze-backports.
The qemu command line included the -hda option but the vexpress kernel
wasn't able to find /dev/sda or /dev/hda.
The system dropped to busybox command line and I didn't see an sda or
hda device when runnign dmesg there.
One should never draw conclusions in bug reports, but when browsing the
kernel config posted for the original vexpress wish (#670462), there is
an nfsrootfs configured in CMDLINE option. So I guess the requestor
checked that with a rootfs over network but not from qemu's local harddisk?!
Best regards,
Marcus
