Hi.

I'm trying to launch recalboxOS v4.0.0 using qemu-system-arm and it seems I'm doing something wrong.

After install qemu in Fedora 25:

sudo dnf install qemu

I downloaded recalbox v4 from here

Then, I try to create a valid iso using:

fallocate -l 1G recalbox_image.img                                     # Create img file
mkfs.msdos recalbox_image.img                                        # Set fat32 format
mkdir recalbox                                                                              # Create temporal folder
sudo mount -o loop recalbox_image.img ./recalbox    # Mount img in folder
sudo unzip recalboxOS-4.0.0.zip -d recalbox                  # Unzip recalbox 4 in img
genisoimage -o recalbox.iso recalbox                                # Create iso

After creating iso, I try to launch it using:

qemu-system-arm -machine raspi2 -hda recalbox_image.img -m 1024 # Launch nothing

It is probably a problem with missing kernel or something. I tried to download raspbian kernels to use them from:

git clone https://github.com/dhruvvyas90/qemu-rpi-kernel

But nothing:

qemu-system-arm -machine raspi2 -hda recalbox_image.img -m 1024 -kernel qemu-rpi-kernel/kernel-qemu-4.4.13-jessie -append "root=/dev/sda2" # Nothing happend

and using:

qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -cpu arm1176 -hda recalbox_image.img -kernel qemu-rpi-kernel/kernel-qemu-4.4.13-jessie -m 1024 -append "root=/dev/sda2"

neither (any version). Someone know what kernel or configuration I must to use?
