Yup, Ali's right.

InOrder isnt supporting FS mode right now.

It's pretty high on the to-do list (actually, it's next), but the recent
time I've spent with Inorder has been with optimizing the simulation speed
for inorder (check) and then adding microcode/register window support for
InOrder so it can support the other ISAs M5 has description languages for
(uncheck).

The FS mode "glue logic" should be portable from the O3 and SimpleCPU models
(at first pass, all the places where you see #if FULL_SYSTEM in the other
models need to be implemented in InOrder) as the ISA specific code *should*
be modular enough that it doesn't depend on what CPU model you choose.

It's always tough to predict how long it will take to implement a
particular, but I'd guess 3-4 weeks of focuded FS implementation would get
it done (given you have the other models for reference).
