   $ ./bin/addon-manager -bs /opt/simics/simics-qsp-x86-6.0.43/

7. Download kolibrios.simics file attached to this post, edit path to kolibri.raw file in it and put kolibrios.simics to targets/qsp-x86/.
8. Copy four more files.

   Code: Select all

   $ cp /opt/simics/simics-qsp-x86-6.0.43/targets/qsp-x86/qsp-system.include targets/qsp-x86/
   $ cp /opt/simics/simics-qsp-x86-6.0.43/targets/qsp-x86/qsp-images.include targets/qsp-x86/
   $ cp /opt/simics/simics-qsp-x86-6.0.43/targets/qsp-x86/qsp-uefi.include targets/qsp-x86/
   $ cp /opt/simics/simics-qsp-x86-6.0.43/targets/qsp-x86/rw-state.include targets/qsp-x86/

   Project setup is done!
