Hi, I have been trying to get bbench running on x86 gem5, I'm not sure if anybody has tried it earlier (couldn't find anything) so I tried to approach it in a rather naive way.
-> First I got x86 full-system setup running on gem5 x86 build (picked full system files from http://www.m5sim.org/Download) -> then I modified the image file to include firefox binary and bbench and booted the modified image But when I try to launch firefox, simulation just crashes ( as I was expecting it to) probably the default image (from http://www.m5sim.org/dist/current/x86/x86-system.tar.bz2) doesn't support x rendering or other libraries needed by firefox. So what's the best way to approach this problem: 1: try to figure out the dependencies missing from the default x86 linux image and fix those or 2: try to get latest 12.04 (or some other) x86_64 ubuntu filesystem to work with gem5 I feel that 2nd option would be more complicated if it requires modifying kernel so I'd be inclined towards trying 1st way.. but I am not sure about either ways Please let me know if its possible to run a browser on the default x86 image and how should I go about it. or if there's some other solution Thanks, -Ashish
