<t>Hi all, I'm booting up the Fedora 14 remix in Qemu and if I select for it to boot into the GUI by default I can't log in. The problem is that the login screen does not see any keyboard input.<br/> <br/> Has anyone else seen this problem? If yes, have you fixed it and how? TIA!<br/> <br/> I'm a Li...

<t>Unfortunately I don't have a Linux system that I can easily mount the partition. (Not sure if there is a way to do it in Windows.)<br/> <br/> I am getting closer on getting networking to work in Qemu in Windows. I had to specify the -net nic,model=smc91c111 It's funny that is the only model that ...

OK, now I'm stuck becasue I can't get a root terminal. I looked all around and all of the suggestions for the root password don't work. So far I have tried:


suse
[blank]
raspberry
password
debian

So, if soneone can enlighten me I'd appreciate it!

<r>It can be done with the Qemu emulator for windows. (I just got it to work today.) I'm using version 1.0.1, others may work but that is the latest.<br/> <br/> However, you need to add the -net none switch to the command starting Qemu. On my PC it was crashing when it tried to access the network ad...

<t>Joe Schmoe said: <br/> <br/> <br/> Another poster reported success with the (Windows compiled version from that site) 0.15 versions.  But, it looks like you two (and me as well) decided to go for the 1.0.1 release.  That may account for the difference.  I haven't tried to run it yet.<br/> <br/> I...

In my search for support I found version 1.0.1 precompiled for Windows.

Using that the system starts to boot but Qemu crashes part way through. Has anyone else tried this and gotten it to work?

<t>bob_binz said: <br/> <br/> <br/> @Sailing_Nut<br/> <br/> This may not be much help, but I got a blank screen in QEMU at one attempt at building a kernel, which could perhaps point to a corrupt kernel image.  Did you download it or roll your own?  Perhaps worth downloading again, just to see?<br/>...

<t>I've never been one to go about things lightly.<br/> <br/> I'm actually a software developer with a background in electronics and embedded systems. But it has been a long time since I've really done any embedded system work. I now work on systems with full blown PCs inside them so no work really ...

<t>nmcc said: <br/> <br/> <br/> Joe Schmoe said: <br/> <br/> <br/> The point of all this is that someone went to the trouble of producing VMWare and VirtualBox images of working Linux (Ubuntu) systems that were certified to have the right version of QEMU (etc, etc) and that would work.  So, going th...

But why don't you just load the image up using an emulator in Windows? There is no need to have an emulator within an emulator.


The problem is that I was unable to find the ARM emulator for WIndows. I only found x86 emulation.

That is correct, I am THAT crazy to try that!

I don't have a machine that I am at liberty to load Linux on, so I wanted to give it a try this way. If it's not possible, I'll look into scrounging an older system to dedicate to being a Linux box.

<t>OK, I've read this entire post and I haven't seen anyone with the problem that I'm seeing.<br/> <br/> I have followed the steps to extract the linux partition from the official Debian6 image for the RPi. I then ran Qemu with the following command:<br/> <br/> qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -cpu ar...

<t>Good catch on the level shifting!<br/> <br/> I didn't think about that, I was caught up in thinking that SPI was like RS-232 where the signaling levels are a part of the spec.<br/> <br/> I may be able to get away without level shifting because my Arduino board (Seeeduino) can run at 3.3V or 5V. I...

<t>Just wondering how the GERTBOARD actually operates to run motors, etc. From what I read it does not look like it is directly using the Pi GPIO. I'm guessing this because of the inclusion of the PIC controller on the board.<br/> <br/> How dies the Pi communicate to the PIC? I'm wondering if an Ard...
