[Barrelfish-users] Running Barrelfish on QEMU Fails

[Karim Alomari]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to build and run Barrelfish but when I run the following command:

make qemu_x86_64

I got the following error:

../tools/qemu-wrapper.sh --menu platforms/x86/menu.lst.x86_64 --arch x86_64

         Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images,

I'm using QEMU emulator version 2.11.1(Debian 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.8) on a
virtual machine with Ubuntu 18.04.

Please advise.

Thanks,
