+2) Download kernel + initrd
+
+On ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/contrib/Jean-Christophe_Plagniol-Villard/qemu_mips/
+you can downland
+
+#config to build the kernel
+qemu_mips_defconfig
+#patch to fix mips interupt init on 2.6.24.y kernel
+qemu_mips_kernel.patch
+initrd.gz

+4) Generate uImage
+
+# tools/mkimage -A mips -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0x80010000 -e 0x80245650 -n "Linux 2.6.24.y" -d vmlinux.bin.gz uImage
+
+5) Copy uImage to Flash
+# dd if=uImage bs=1k conv=notrunc seek=224 of=flash
+
+6) Generate Ide Disk
+
+# dd of=ide bs=1k cout=100k if=/dev/zero
+
+# sfdisk -C 261 -d ide
+# partition table of ide
+unit: sectors

+
+7) Copy to ide
+
+# dd if=uImage bs=512 conv=notrunc seek=63 of=ide
+
+8) Generate ext2 on part 2 on Copy uImage and initrd.gz
+
+# Attached as loop device ide offset = 32130 * 512
+# losetup -o 16450560 -f ide
+# Format as ext2 ( arg2 : nb blocks)

+10) Now you can boot from flash, ide, ide+ext2 and tfp
+
+# qemu-system-mips -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic -net nic -net user -tftp `pwd` -hda ide

II) How to debug U-Boot
In order to debug U-Boot you need to start qemu with gdb server support (-s)
and waiting the connection to start the CPU (-S)
-# qemu-system-mips -S -s -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic
+# qemu-system-mips -S -s -M mips -pflash flash -monitor null -nographic -net nic -net user -tftp `pwd` -hda ide
in an other console you start gdb
1) Debugging of U-Boot Before Relocation
Before relocation, the addresses in the ELF file can be used without any problems
