Qemu non-KVM installation

Post by nix23 » Fri Apr 14, 2023 10:43 am

Since my old warhorses are all not capable of running OpenVMS (no XSAFE) i try to run it with qemu (full emulation), i know it's not supported but for the fun let's try it, so this is my qemu one-liner:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-x86_64 -bios /usr/share/edk2-ovmf/x64/OVMF.fd -cpu Cascadelake-Server-v4 -M q35
 -smp 8,sockets=1,cores=8,threads=1 -m 6192 -drive file=./openvms0.img -cdrom ./X86E921OE/X86E921OE.ISO
  -netdev user,id=mynet0,net=192.168.1.0/24,dhcpstart=192.168.1.200 -nic user,model=e1000 -serial stdio
vms_bootmgr starts and see's the Disk (openvms0.img), then proceeds to boot, connection to Com works, all CPU's get initialized then crash. Has anyone a idea how to proceed?

Since .txt or none at all is a invalid extension as attachment i cant add the crash from the serial-console.

With UTM 4.6.3, looks like the same crash as for QEMU: Dump kernel has bugchecked, code = 0000020D
