Hi Michael, 0. What are you looking when you say more documentation? 1. How long did you wait? The bbench simulation takes 8 hours to complete for me when you dont specify the cpu type (default is AtomicSimple). Of this, I suppose ~2 hours should be boot up. If the cpu is arm_detailed, it takes a day to boot. You can connect via a vnc client to get the GUI. 2. Add "--frame-capture" to your command line. This will take screenshots of the simulated machine's screen periodically and dump to m5out/frames_vncserver. Hope that answers your question. I have only interacted with command line and it was too slow, so I never tried interacting with the simulated machine through the GUI. Cheers, Kirtika
