ubuntu noob needs help with nasm and qemu

[aliceinchains]

So I have 2 harddrives and one has bochs and windows and the other has ubuntu and qemu installed. Now my problem is when I run my image in qemu it doesnt work and I'm not sure why... All the image does is get into 64bit with vbe mode 411b, interrupts still disabled and draw some dots. I also compiled and made a qemu image and that one doesnt work either.

You haven't provided sufficient information for anyone to help you. Please read how to ask questions.

Well ok, how would i run qemu like bochs does by default.

Edit:
Is that even possible with switches, I read the documentation and tried to make it the same and have failed for atleast 2 hours.

You need to make a bochsrc file, then you pass that in as a parameter when you start bochs.

http://bochs.sourceforge.net/doc/docboo ... chsrc.html - Bochs Documentation on the bochsrc file
http://www.emulators.com/docs/bochsrc.txt - An example bochsrc file

After creating your bochsrc file, start bochs with

Code: Select all

bochs -f yourbochsrc.txt

I thought bochs was windows only... problem solved.

Except, if your image runs in Bochs but not in qemu then there is a bug in your code. Best to sort that out now whilst things are simple rather than just ignoring it.

So, problem not really solved.
