NVRAM

Post by WizKid »

Now we all now currently with Qemu PPC emulation, one always gets the infamous "Unable to find NVRAM partition" message.

Why preserve the NVRAM? Because it's required for such things as the RAM disk feature in the memory control panel. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Per the wiki for the as-yet-unreleased Qemu 68k version, it states:

Code: Select all

./qemu-img create -f raw pram.img 256b
...
-drive file=pram.img,format=raw,if=mtd \
Well what if something similar could be done with qemu-ppc and OpenBIOS?
