I am working on making VFIO w= orking on PowerPC Booke, So I have cloned Alex Williamsons git repository, = compiled kernel for x86 on fedora with virtualization configuration (select= ed all kernel config options for same). Run below command to boot Guest (I = have not provided vfio device yet):=20 "qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 1024 -nographic -kernel arch/x86_64/boot= /bzImage -initrd /boot/initramfs-3.5.0-rc4+.img -serial tcp::4444,server,te= lnet" After the I can see qemu command line (able to run various commands like "i= nfo registers" etc), while guest does not boot (not even the first print co= mes). Can anyone help in what I am missing or doing wrong? Thanks -Bharat
