Hi, Serge, 1. You can do "full" test by downloading ppc64le 14.10 iso, but quick test is also possible by following:
In your host pc(amd64?) 14.10, where you've installed above qemu-user- static (qemu-ppc64le), apt-get download coreutils:ppc64el bash-static:ppc64el # or just wget those two from launchpad 14.10 dpkg-deb -x coreutils*.deb /tmp/ppc64el dpkg-deb -x bash-static*.deb /tmp/ppc64el ln -s /tmp/ppc64el/bin/bash-static /tmp/ppc64el/bin/bash cp /usr/bin/qemu-ppc64le-static /tmp/ppc64el/usr/bin 2. Now really tiny/broken chroot env is setup by 1. Now chroot, sudo su chroot /tmp/ppc64el If you see, "bash-4.3#" prompt, now you know it's successfully executed "ppc64el binary" using binfmt_misc. Note: FYI, you can try: "ls" in chroot environment, yet it would not work since it cannot find /lib64/ld64.so.2. However, static binary "echo" would work without problem! If you get into any problem, please let me know. Thank you! PS. I still want "powerpcel" patch part committed too, although no community (known) is working on this except me since I rely on this patch to work on my current porting of "powerpcel". Since nobody is using "powerpcel" at this point, it's safe to do so I believe.
