You can build a 32-bit VM image with grml-debootstrap [1]: > > sudo DEBOOTSTRAP=mmdebstrap ~/src/grml-debootstrap/grml-debootstrap --vm --vmfile --vmsize 3G --target /dev/shm/debian-32.img -r sid --arch i686 --filesystem ext4 > > Then run that with QEMU, but pass the 64-bit Linux kernel to QEMU directly with the switches `-kernel` and `-append`, or install the amd64 Linux kernel into the Debian VM image or the package created with `make bindeb-pkg` with `dpkg -i …`. Thanks for these information! I tried the following, but couldn't reproduce the issue. sudo ./grml-debootstrap --vm --vmfile --vmsize 3G --target ../debian-32.img -r sid --arch i386 --filesystem ext4 Note: s/i686/i386/. Also I run this on Fedora, so I didn't specify DEBOOTSTRAP. Then I run it with qemu-system-x86_64 \ -boot d ./debian-32.img -m 1024 -smp 4 \ -kernel ./bzImage \ -nographic -append 'root=/dev/sda1 ro console=ttyS0,115200' The VM boots fine. The config being used is x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION. I wonder whether this is caused by different config or different image. Could you please share your config? Thanks, Song PS: I couldn't figure out the root password of the image, --password option of grml-debootstrap doesn't seem to work.
