something appeared to get stuck in a loop, displaying:
Press Enter to continue, h to halt...
over and over again. I eventually resorted to killing
the emulator.
It took a kill -9 to get it to end. In case it gives any clues,
after killing it the error.log contained:
I've seen this behavior a few times, but didn't get it tracked down.
If the disk container file is non-zero size, the make may have worked.
Otherwise, check the top of console.log, before the spin starts, and see
if there's anything diagnostic there.
-nport is zero, PNC not started
emulator: device '7 failed initialization - device removed
-tport is zero, AMLC devices not started
emulator: device '53 failed initialization - device removed
emulator: device '54 failed initialization - device removed
This is all normal. Once you get a system built, you may want to turn
on serial terminal ports (i.e. telnet sessions) by using the -tport
option.
