Hi Miguel, Sorry for the late reply.
I don't know whether parsec.img would work with configs/fs.py; however, we've been testing and using parsec.img with the gem5 configs from gem5-resources (https://gem5.googlesource.com/public/gem5-resources/+/refs/heads/stable/src/parsec/configs/) [1]. You can modify the configs from [1] to run command line commands (which, I guess, would have the same behaviors as --script from configs/fs.py). Specifically, in the writeBenchScript() function in run_parsec.py, the content inputted to bench_file.write() will eventually be appended to .bashrc during gem5 simulation. Since you mentioned newer Linux kernel versions, it is known that the current state of the configs from [1] would run into a kernel panic when running the simulation with newer Linux kernel versions. This change (https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5-resources/+/42261) is supposed to fix the problem.
