Bochs bug

Post by arseniuss »

HI, everyone!

I have problem with bochs installed on Ubuntu 11.04. It freezes GUI and i can't get any result.
I have tried on fresh Ubuntu installation too and bochsrc is very simple: just boot image.

Have you tried the sample config included with your distro, and adding the boot image line to it, rather than making a blank one?

iirc you need to specify the seabios images etc, or there is no bios in the emulator to transfer control to, but i could be wrong. I have never tried to boot from a blank config like that.

I haven't tried sample config from distro. But before at Ubuntu 10.04 (&& before Unity) bochs was working fine.

Could you provide your bochsrc file and the log output?
