I was able to get virtualization running on my Samsung ARM chromebook (using a nv-uboot that turns on HYP and a locally built 3.11 kernel with a patch). Interesting .. which/what is "nv-uboot" and where did you get it from? > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F18/Versatile_Express > > This particular image uses a 3.6.10 linux kernel. The URL above mentions that DTB files are needed for newer kernels. Is there a particular DTB file that would be best to use? There seems to be several vexpress*.dtb files to choose from. I used: qemu-system-arm \ -M vexpress-a9 \ -dtb /boot/dtb-....../vexpress-v2p-ca9.dtb \ -machine accel=kvm:tcg,kernel_irqchip=off \ [etc] You can find the full command line that libguestfs passes here: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/master/src/launch-direct.c#L244 Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.
