Hi, if you want to test your upgrade process, I think it would be nice to work in a chroot... and with qemu you can do that. It is not as mature as aranym, but it is nice to play with it.
How to do ? Follow this: create an etch-m68k system under /m68k using something like sudo debootstrap --arch=m68k --foreign etch-m68k /m68k http://archive.debian.org/debian then get my qemu m68k fork (based on the work of Andreas Schwab): git clone git://gitorious.org/qemu-m68k/qemu-m68k.git and build it: cd qemu-m68k ./configure --target-list=m68k-linux-user --m68k-default-cpu=m68040 --static sudo cp m68k-linux-user/qemu-m68K /m68k/usr/bin ./scripts/set_binfmt_m68k sudo chroot /m68k # uname -a Linux aspire-one 2.6.38-10-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 28 15:05:41 UTC 2011 m68k GNU/Linux # mount none /proc -t proc # ps -f UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 26492 9209 0 18:21 ? 00:00:00 sudo chroot /m68k root 26493 26492 23 18:21 ? 00:00:05 /usr/bin/qemu-m68k /bin/bash -i root 26521 26493 0 18:22 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/qemu-m68k /bin/ps -f And for the fun, I've a little program computing the bogomips as the kernel startup does and guessing the emulated Mhz: # ./bogomips Clocking: 33 BogoMips: 26.00 Calibration: 131072 (on a Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz) I've no real internet access until mid of august, but I'll try to answer to your questions, if any...
