For example with QEMU:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 4096 -kernel uImage-6.11 -drive format=raw,file=void-live-powerpc-20230317.img,index=0,if=virtio -netdev user,id=mynet0 -device virtio-net,netdev=mynet0 -append "root=/dev/vda console=ttyS0 single" -device virtio-keyboard-pci -smp 4 -nographic

The runit-void package comes with two runsvdirs, single and default:

single just runs sulogin(8) and the necessary steps to rescue your system.
default is the default runsvdir on a running system.

I was able to update Void in the root disk image yesterday. I think, this is the last Void disk image. Please change to Fienix in the future.

New:

• Noboot disk image (image without boot partition)
• Fbdev is pre-configured
• Renamed the libglamoregl.so to libglamoregl.so.bak
• Yaru themes
• Arctic Fox 40.1
• Pale Moon 31.2

Download: void-live-powerpc-20230317.img.tar.gz (md5sum: 9e663d6045ffc24e58b7adbd4b9c9629)

If you want to enable hardware acceleration manually, then edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Change the "driver" from fbdev to radeon.

Please test it.

Thanks,
Christian
