rootfs ?

[bianchi77]

Hi Ciro, I got your link from here :+1: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/70931/install-x11-on-my-own-linux-system ......Tested on Ubuntu 16.04, Buildroot 2016.05.....

I tried to run rootfs.tar from qemu but I don't know root="" ? Kernel panic, can not find root system , what should I do with rootfs.tar with qemu ?

Thanks

Hi

1. So you are running these commands, correct:

make BR2_JLEVEL=$(nproc)
qemu-system-x86_64 \
    -enable-kvm \
    -M pc \
    -m 512 \
    -kernel output/images/bzImage \
    -drive file=output/images/rootfs.ext2,if=virtio,format=raw \
    -append root=/dev/vda \
    -net nic,model=virtio \
    -net user

with this .config file: https://github.com/cirosantilli/buildroot-configs/blob/44b45b5c7f68e44abcda360a2b980f8301901a9a/qemu_x86_64_x11_defconfig ?

2. Does output/images/rootfs.ext2 exist?

3. The root in -append root=/dev/vda shouldn't change I think, what matters most is the -drive file=output/images/rootfs.ext2.

I'll try this once again when I get the time.

OK, I have just re-run this and those exact instructions worked :-)

I tried rebuild my buildroot and it can not "startx"

Hmmm, sorry, but I don't know much about X.

Are you sure you have:

• a clean build git clean -xdf
• with this config file: https://github.com/cirosantilli/buildroot-configs/blob/44b45b5c7f68e44abcda360a2b980f8301901a9a/qemu_x86_64_x11_defconfig
• at git checkout 2016.05

?

If yes, try opening a stack overflow question ;-)

That's my screenshot for Xorg config,

how can I load your defconfig, I can't call it with make qemu_x86_64_x11_defconfig https://github.com/cirosantilli/buildroot-configs/blob/44b45b5c7f68e44abcda360a2b980f8301901a9a/qemu_x86_64_x11_defconfig from shell ??

Rename qemu_x86_64_x11_defconfig to .config, make uses .config in current directory :-)
