Hi,
when running QEMU, build as console-image, some strange errors occur.

QEMU was started with the following command:
qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -m 128 -kernel
/var/oe-core/tmp-eglibc/deploy/images/qemuarm/zImage-qemuarm.bin -hda
/var/oe-core/tmp-eglibc/deploy/images/qemuarm/console-image-qemuarm.ext2
-append root=/dev/sda

Note: If QEMU would be run without machine configuration, it would
load the machine "integratorcp ARM Integrator/CP (ARM926EJ-S)
(default)" and crash, therefore I run "versatilepb ARM Versatile/PB
(ARM926EJ-S)" which should work according to the machine configuration
of qemuarm.conf (OT: there may be a typo in the conf:  "#@NAME:
arm_versaile_926ejs")


The Angstrom splash screen was displayed, after QEMU loaded a bit and
it stopped (with progress somewhere at the right end of the loading
bar).
Thereafter this error, among others, showed up:
hwclock: can't open '/dev/misc/rtc' : No such file or directory

Also it looks like the root filesystem was only mounted readonly,
makes no sense for me.

Comments or help would be very appreciated
