I’m looking to do some testing and am using QEMU (or trying to) for this as an emulator on my windows box. I know with the raspian image, root=/dev/sda2. Does anyone know what it is for OSMC?
TIA
Kodi won’t work under QEMU as it’s built against VC4 libs
Well, that would explain it. Is there an emulator that would work with it?
Not that I’m aware of.
Qemu does work. QEMU Raspberry Pi Emulation
Binaries are located here:
Nice.
Our installer uses a QWS rendering path, so not GLES. I would expect that to be loadable with a bit of tinkering and configuring the storage as mmcblk
But did you actually get Kodi to load under QEMU? That is GLES driven, and I would be surprised if there is support for VideoCore IV in the emulator.
OSMC’s userland will run fine, but Kodi will not. But if you want OSMC’s userland, you could copy QEMU User Emulation to /usr/bin and chroot(), or just debootstrap amd64 version and use OSMC’s x64 packages.
