Hi Rich But there is no src/kernel.ml file on my ubuntu powerpc to which the above patch is reffering. I have installed supermin as supermin_5.1.8-2_powerpc.deb debian package.

This two-part patch for supermin implements device trees (for ARM). The first patch introduces a more rational way to handle command line arguments in 'supermin-helper'. See the commit message for details. The old style is still supported for compatibility. The second patch adds an extra supermin-helper --dtb parameter specifying a wildcard. A device tree file which matches the

...s check. Can you see if supermin works if you set some variation of: export SUPERMIN_KERNEL=/boot/vmlinuz-<version>.lpae export SUPERMIN_KERNEL_VERSION=<version> export SUPERMIN_MODULES=/lib/modules/<version>.lpae which should bypass the check. You might also need to set SUPERMIN_DTB to point to a DTB, or maybe not if qemu is generating device trees correctly on ARM 32 bit these days.

...rom git To use KVM: - Cortex-A15 hardware that boots into Hyp mode - host kernel >= 3.11 with LPAE + KVM support (You can also use regular ARM hardware w/o KVM support, or qemu.) If you need different host and appliance kernels, then set SUPERMIN_KERNEL to point to the appliance vmlinuz and SUPERMIN_DTB to point to the device tree file called 'vexpress-v2p-ca9.dtb'. If host kernel == appliance kernel (as on x86), then you shouldn't need to set any environment variables. It's expected that some tests in the libguestfs test suite will fail. I'm working on fixing those. However...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I was testing oz/imagefactory on 32 bit arm, you have to have kernel-lpae installed to run kvm. while you can have the regular kernel installed also. You end up having the system booting the regular kernel and you do not get kvm. Ideally supermin will work with the lpae kernel.
