Now that you wrote it I did notice the same thing with my kirk testing.

As Ankur said I dropped the fragment and then run:

runqemu slirp nographic snapshot

Best regards,
Daniel

drop "qemux86-64" argument, it is not needed since the machine config
fragment is set.
"runqemu core-image-minimal" should succeed.


Hello Ankur,
This leads us to another problem (also happens if I remove the fragment):

$ runqemu
runqemu - INFO - Running bitbake -e  ...
runqemu - ERROR - .zst images are only supported with snapshot mode. You can 
either use the "snapshot" option or use an uncompressed image.
runqemu - INFO - Cleaning up
runqemu - INFO - Host uptime: 17100244.13
Kind regards,
Marta
