s390 boot testing #232
Description
Let's continue discussion from #229.
Quick summary:
- QEMU actually can emulate processors newer than Z900 (Debian Buster has qemu 3.1.0 which should emulate IBM machines up to z12)
- Buildroot dropped support for s390 back in 2009 (gentoo netboot initramfs may be an alternative)
- When booting (
qemu-system-s390x -m 512m -machine s390-ccw-virtio -initrd images/s390/rootfs.cpio -display none -serial mon:stdio -kernel linux/arch/s390/boot/bzImage) there was a kernel fault: S390 support #229 (comment)
