Very cool! I got the OCaml hello world example working, building in an
Ubuntu 15.04 docker container and running on the host under kvm.
Note: I had to "apt-get install gcc-4.8-multilib", otherwise the
initial "opam sw" failed.
I was able to run it with:
$ qemu-system-i386 -kernel ./hello.bin -append '{"cmdline": "../../hello.bin"}'
(the "rumprun" script worked too, but running it this way made things
clearer to me)
I also tested mirage-skeleton/console, which worked but ran rather
fast (it's supposed to wait 1s between each print). Calling
gettimeofday showed the clock running fast for some reason.
