qemu-screamer host Arch Linux build error

[Womp]

Hi!
I have been trying for weeks to build qemu-sceamer for Arch Linux. (I am still crazy about macos9!)
This:
"qemu-screamer/docs/../include/exec/memory.h:3:Type must be either just a name or a typedef-like declaration.
If just a name:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name, got keyword: struct [error at 6]
struct MemoryListener
------^
If typedef-like declaration:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 21]
struct MemoryListener"

I have tried several build arguments but the last one (./configure --target-list="ppc-softmmu" --enable-sdl --enable-gtk) I thought was a safe bet.

I use the recommended git-place for linux.

I am lost now and I wonder if someone could hint me?

Hi,

From exactly which repo did you download? How did you download and how did you unpack the source?

Hi and thanks for answer!

git clone -b screamer https://github.com/mcayland/qemu qemu-screamer

For unpacking used engrampa. (which format that is used I am not sure about because engrampa takes care of that.I am guessing unzip)

Hi,

If you use:

Code: Select all

git clone -b screamer https://github.com/mcayland/qemu qemu-screamer 

The source should be ready for building immediately.

So:

Code: Select all

cd qemu-screamer
./configure --target-list=ppc-softmmu --enable-sdl --enable-gtk

Should work. If not, then there is something wrong in your compiler setup.

Hi again!
I removed and did a new git clone and now it did build fine!!
I am now trying to install 9.2. I have made a script that look like this.

!/usr/bin/bash
export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=pa
./qemu-system-ppc
-L openbios-ppc \
-cpu "g4" \
-boot d \
-M mac99,via=pmu \
-prom-env "auto-boot?=true" \
-prom-env "boot-args=-v" \
-prom-env "vga-ndrv?=true" \
-device VGA,edid=on \
-m 256 \
-netdev user,id=network01 \
-device sungem,netdev=network01 \
-drive file=/9.2.img,format=raw,media=disk \
-cdrom "PowerMacG4Install9.2.toast" \

I get error message "qemu-system-ppc: Initialization of device ne2k_pci failed: failed to find romfile "efi-ne2k_pci.rom"
When I look in rom folder there are no ne2k_pci.rom. Can I download that from somewhere?

I also get that the -L command doesn't exist!?

Hi,

That is an interesting combination of commands

You need to find the pc-bios folder that was created in the folder in which you built qemu.
I normally put everything needed in one folder in my home folder:
qemu-system-ppc
pc-bios folder
batch file to start qemu.

If you do that, this should work:

#!/bin/bash
export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=pa
./qemu-system-ppc \
-L pc-bios \
-boot d \
-M mac99,via=pmu \
-device VGA,edid=on \
-m 256 \
-drive file=9.2.img,format=raw,media=disk \
-drive file=PowerMacG4Install9.2.toast,format=raw,media=cdrom

Best,

Yeeeesss!
Thank you soo much!! I have been struggling with this for the last weeks and now I have sound!!

I have 9.2 installed on my mbp too with sound and the only thing missing now is how to share a folder or disk between host and guest. Do you have a link or hint on what's a good solution?

Thank you!!
