Created attachment 2414 [details] snapshot of qemu Kernel Panic : Not Syncing : Exit code 0x00000004 Hello Team, I am using the 'hob' from poky and building the image by selecting the machine as "qemuarm". Initially this file having architecture as followed qemuarm.conf +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ #@TYPE: Machine #@NAME: arm_versatile_926ejs #@DESCRIPTION: arm_versatile_926ejs require conf/machine/include/qemu.inc require conf/machine/include/tune-arm926ejs.inc #require conf/machine/include/tune-arm1136jf-s.inc KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "zImage" SERIAL_CONSOLE = "115200 ttyAMA0" +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ After building the image with "core-image-minimal" or "core-image-full-cmdline" while running the image with qemu it works fine. I want to change qemu working for "arm v7a" means support "Cortex A8". That's why for this I make the changes in qemuarm.conf as in the "~/poky/meta/conf/machine.conf" qemuarm.conf +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ require conf/machine/include/qemu.inc require conf/machine/include/tune-cortexa8.inc KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "zImage" SERIAL_CONSOLE = "115200 ttyAMA0" +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ After that I am building the image and running it with qemu; I am getting the kernel panic. Kernel Panic - not syncing : Attempting to kill Init! exitcode=0x00000004
*** Bug 7333 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Its panicking as qemu is emulating a v5 CPU and you're passing it armv7 binaries. Its therefore not a bug, change the runqemu cpu options to say its a v7 cpu as mentioned already on the mailing list.
