Greetings,

I have tried to start 9front-10277.arm64.qcow2 with this command(*), but it only pop-up the new little window with qemu command line that I haver seen so many times before.
It could be that I have a too old u-boot.bin. To get a newer I have installed u-boot-tools, which gave me the command mkimage, but no u-boot.bin. I cloned u-boot.git, but it fails to compile since it can not fin OPENSSL (which I have and use for other things).
Since the arm64.qcow2 is without graphics, which I want, it is not worth spending more time on 9front-10277.arm64.qcow2.

Best Wishes,
bengt

Sorry, my mistake. I thought you meant modifying the arm64 kernel to
get graphics working. There I need a starting point, and it might
still prove to be above my competence.

Starting arm64 kernel with QEMU seems to be expertly explained, so
that even I can do it.
