Re: arm64eb & qemu

Waah!  My big-endian arm64 virtual host run using qemu no longer
appears to work, following a qemu upgrade from

qemu-8.1.3          CPU emulator using dynamic translation

to

qemu-9.2.2nb4       Machine emulator and virtualizer

With the new version it no longer recognizes the -no-acpi switch,
and this may have something to do with it.

With

--------------------
#! /bin/sh

qemu-system-aarch64 \
        -cpu cortex-a57 \
        -smp 4 \
        -m 8g \
        -machine virt \
        -drive if=none,file=disk.img,id=hd0 \
                -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
        -netdev type=user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp::2223-:22,ipv6=off \
                -device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0,mac=00:23:23:01:01:05 \
        -device virtio-rng-device \
        -nographic \
        -bios QEMU_EFI.fd

#       -no-acpi

QEMU: Terminated

(yes, I terminated it since it didn't make any progress.)

Any hints for further debugging?
