Not sure where is "qemu-kvm", but after downloading qemu from git:// git.qemu.org/qemu.git, and after building it, the "qemu-system-x86_64" is used to bootup smartos-latest.iso (as downloaded from SmartOS site):
qemu-img create qemu_smartos.img 3500M qemu-system-x86_64 -m 512M -boot d -cdrom smartos-latest.iso -hda qemu_smartos.img And after booting, I used mdb to get the crashdump, and analyse the registers etc: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1hg6_FvnEa8LUNvYl9aYmF3VjA/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1hg6_FvnEa8MEdMT3M1dU1xWTQ/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1hg6_FvnEa8NlpUZEgtYTFVMzg/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1hg6_FvnEa8UERUOWg3RVlEcFk/edit?usp=sharing Check it out.
