malta: add 64 bit qemu commands to README
[openwrt/staging/mkresin.git] / target / linux / malta / README
1 This Malta target is intended to be used with the Qemu emulator. It can be used
2 to prototype an OpenWrt firmware for MIPS processors. One could also use it to
3 troubleshoot MIPS applications without access to real hardware.

5 To use the images built by OpenWrt with qemu, use the following commands:
6
7 For the 32 bit little-endian image:
8 qemu-system-mipsel -kernel bin/targets/malta/le/lede-malta-le-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256
9
10 For the 32 bit big-endian image:
11 qemu-system-mips -kernel bin/targets/malta/be/lede-malta-be-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256
12
13 For the 64 bit little-endian image:
14 qemu-system-mips64el -kernel bin/targets/malta/le64/lede-malta-le64-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256
15
16 For the 64 bit big-endian image:
17 qemu-system-mips64 -kernel bin/targets/malta/be64/lede-malta-be64-vmlinux-initramfs.elf -nographic -m 256
