Re: ARM with Qemu

Hi,

Thanks for your answer and your help.

>Could also be the uart issue? But entering jdb always works for me.

Even if I can't give inputs to the bare metal application on Qemu, I can
also enter into the JDB. Is that mean that all interruptions are well
handled? So the uart issue seems more probable.
	
>Which kind of panic?

I firstly tested my L4linux on Qemu for the Zinq board and the boot
finishes well (with the problem of inputs that I told you before).
Nonetheless, with the same image on the board, I have this message:
