[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1394550] [NEW] qemu: linux kernel too old to load a ram disk

[Arsen.Shnurkov]

Public bug reported:

I was built      kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.17.3-gentoo-gnu   and
initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.17.3-gentoo-gnu in Gentoo Linux from sys-
kernel/gentoo-sources/gentoo-sources-3.17.3.ebuild

When I run this kernel with switches  -kernel  -initrd  -append (and
others), qemu gives misleading message:

"qemu: linux kernel too old to load a ram disk"

this is not an old linux! Just something should be configured better.
