Hi Samuel,
self in this case is the system.
./build/ARM/m5.opt
--list-sim-objects should provide you a list of all objects and
parameters, however now that I run it there is a bug and it's not
printing everything. Until we get it fixed looking at the *py files in
src is your best bet.

have to search through the implementation files to get all the possible
settings I can make in the config script?

Shall I pack it in the same file as the kernel or can I somehow specify,
where the ramdisk should be loaded into memory in the script? As far as
I see it, with gem5 one doesn't need/have a bootloader where such things
could be specified.
