Hello,
I tried writing Leap 15.2 EFI image to a SD card and slotting it into a board, and it just works. However, booting openSUSE in qemu is really difficult. First you need the qemu which by deafult provides only aarch64 uefi, you need to ask for the arm32 one: zypper in qemu-arm qemu-uefi-aarch32 Than you need to create flash images for the firmware - at least there are numerous guides that tell you that. Imagine it just worked like x86 and ppc dd if=/dev/zero of=flash0.img bs=1M count=64 dd if=/dev/zero of=flash1.img bs=1M count=64 dd if=/usr/share/qemu/aavmf-aarch32-code.bin of=flash0.img conv=notrunc dd if=/usr/share/qemu/aavmf-aarch32-vars.bin of=flash1.img conv=notrunc Finally you can boot the image qemu-system-aarch64 -nographic -machine virt -drive file=openSUSE-Tumbleweed-ARM-JeOS-efi.armv7l-2020.09.29-Snapshot20200928.img,if=none,id=drive0,cache=writeback -device virtio-blk,drive=drive0,bootindex=0 -drive file=flash0.img,format=raw,if=pflash -drive file=flash1.img,format=raw,if=pflash after a lot of output grub comes up and complains: error: failed to install/update FDT. Loading Linux 5.8.7-1-default ... Loading initial ramdisk ... Press any key to continue... That is when it does complain. Initially you select from the menu and grub just immediately returns to the menu overwriting any error shown with the menu background. Is there a way to run ARM Tumbleweed in qemu? I might be better off with statically linked qemu-user I suppose. Thanks Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
