Hello everyone, my name is Moses and I'm trying to set up a VM for a risc-v
processor, I'm using the Risc-V Getting Started Guide and on the final step
I'm getting an error while trying to launch the virtual machine using the
cmd:
sudo qemu-system-riscv64 -nographic -machine virt \
-kernel linux/arch/riscv/boot/Image -append "root=/dev/vda ro
console=ttyS0" \
-drive file=busybox,format=raw,id=hd0 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0
But what I get in return is a message telling me that the file I gave
wasn't the right one, the actual output is:
qemu-system-riscv64: -drive file=busybox,format=raw,id=hd0: A regular file
was expected by the 'file' driver, but something else was given
And I checked the file busybox with de cmd "file" and got the following :
busybox: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, UCB RISC-V, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux-riscv64-lp64d.so.1, for
GNU/Linux 4.15.0, stripped
So I was wondering if the error message was related to qemu.
Thanks in advance for answering any suggestions are welcome

Hello,
Please don't use the RISC-V Getting Started Guide. Pretty much all of
the information there is out of date and wrong. Unfortunately we are
unable to correct it.
The QEMU wiki is a much better place for information:

That looks like an ELF, which won't work when attached as a drive.
How are you building this rootFS?

Ya, everything at riscv.org is useless. It's best to stick to the open source
documentation, as when that gets out of date we can at least fix it. Using a
distro helps a lot here, the wiki describes how to run a handful of popular
ones that were ported to RISC-V early but if your favorite isn't on the list
then it may have its own documentation somewhere else.

Even better if you could submit some .rst pages for QEMU's git:
docs/system/target-riscv.rst
docs/system/riscv/virt.rst (and maybe the other models)
then we could improve the user manual where RiscV is currently a little
under-represented. A number of the systems have simple example command
lines or explain the kernel support needed for the model.

Thanks for pointing that out Alex. Bin has sent some patches for this
so RISC-V should have a presence soon.

Yep, after the initial patches are merged, we can start adding more
RISC-V docs in reST.
