Those were the boot procedures used for the beagleboard using qemu. This is for -M beagle, with qemu-system-arm. Anyway, I just need a way to boot vexpress-a9 using QEMU. I'll send a private email, with the patch to you, so that you can start off from where I left, in terms of modifications to poky-master and be able to debug the issue directly at your end.
