OK, I will leave the corenet generic support in the X5000 kernels. Many thanks for the fast testing! :-)

Hi All,

I added the e1000 network adapter driver to the QEMU e5500 Linux kernel today. Now, you can connect your virtual e5500 machine to the network.

Download: uImage-4.17-QEMU-e1000

Hi All,

I released the RC7 of kernel 4.17 for the X5000, X1000, and for virtual e5500 QEMU machines today.

New:
Download: vmlinux-4.17-rc7-AmigaOne_X1000_X5000.tar.gz

Screenshot of the RC7 of kernel 4.17 in virtual e5500 PPC64 QEMU 2.12.0 machines on a PC:

I booted the two virtual e5500 QEMU machines with the following commands:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 2048 -kernel /home/christian/Downloads/vmlinux-4.17-rc7-AmigaOne_X1000_X5000/QEMU_e5500/uImage-4.17 -drive format=raw,file=/home/christian/Downloads/MATE_PowerPC_Remix_2017_0.9.img,index=0,if=virtio -nic user,model=e1000 -append "rw root=/dev/vda" -device virtio-vga -device virtio-mouse-pci -device virtio-keyboard-pci

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 2048 -nographic -kernel /home/christian/Downloads/vmlinux-4.17-rc7-AmigaOne_X1000_X5000/X5000/uImage-4.17 -drive format=raw,file=/home/christian/Dokumente/ubuntu_MATE_16.04.3_LTS_PowerPC_QEMU/ubuntu_MATE_16.04_PowerPC.img,index=0,if=virtio -nic user,model=e1000 -append "rw root=/dev/vda3"
I cross compiled the kernels on my PC today. Please test them on your X5000 and X1000.

Thanks in advance,
Christian
