Hi

I have compiled libguestfs-1.26.1 on powerpc ubuntu using
supermin_5.1.8-2_powerpc.deb as it dependency package.
When I'm executing the binary libguestfs-test-tool on powerpc ubuntu,I'm
getting supermin error...

supermin: failed to find a suitable kernel (host_cpu=powerpc64).

I looked for kernels in /boot and modules in /lib/modules.

If this is a Xen guest, and you only have Xen domU kernels
installed, try installing a fullvirt kernel (only for
supermin use, you shouldn't boot the Xen guest with it).
libguestfs: error: /usr/bin/supermin exited with error status 1, see debug
messages above

Please help regarding this.
