Please check out http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/IA64wiki/SkiSimulator
for lots of info on Ski.

It works fine with Linux 2.6; and hugepage work too.

I suggest you start with
make sim_defconfig

Your symptoms look like a misconigured or misbuilt vmlinux.  The sim_defconfig

If you're running on IA32, then you need something like:
make CROSS_COMPILE=ia64-linux-gnu ARCH=ia64 boot 
to build kernel and bootloader.

You need to get or build yourself a disk image.  Instructions for
building at http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/IA64wiki/skidiskimage

How to boot 2.6 kernel using hp ski simulator ???

2006-11-25 Thread sudhnesh adapawar

Hey all !
 I wanted to boot 2.6 kernel configured for ia64 architecture
on ia32 archi using hp ski simulator ! But I failed to do so ! I
followed the following steps:
1) I used 'make ARCH=ia64 menuconfig' to configure and followed the
steps to get kernel image of version 2.6 ! I also selected the generic
type as Ski-simulator and also selected the HP-ski drivers something
simscsi,etc.etc.
2)  After this I gave the following command for the ski installed in
my OS kernel version 2.6 :
 $ ski bootloader vmlinux simscsi=/var/ski-disks/sd
3) Then gave run to start the process.The screen with the output as
"loading vmlinux" was displayed and the process haltedno working
further !
Querries:
1) I am not getting what is happenning for 2.6 configured with ia64???
..But I also downloaded the bootloader and vmlinux for 2.4 from Hp
ski simulator home site and tried with the above 2 steps and the 2.4
kernel was booted successfullyI dont know whether this kernel
image is configured for ia64 but whatever it worked !
2) Does ski supports for 2.6 kernel configured with ia64 archi as done
in above  stepno : 2) ??
3) How can we use sda i.e simulated filesystemlike can we mount it
?? Or whenever the kernel is booted using ski command the filesystem
it uses is sda ???
   Thank You
  Please kindly Reply !
