Hi, as I wrote already yesterday in reply to an e-mail in the ml, I got sh4 builds working. A patch for the sh4 registration needs to be applied to to the one delivered with the usual QEMU packages. Also you need a relatively recent QEMU version. Since I do test git upstream of QEMU regularily for user mode, it works fine for me. I had also applied a patch to the build script, now in git master, to let sh4 builds also work inside a virtual machine (there were 2 recent commits for this in build script). Attached you find to this e-mail: - the current version, updated, of the binfmt handler patch for QEMU user mode registration - the Debian Sid project config working with x86, ARM, sh4, PowerPC, MIPS
