What I use as reference for testing ARM boards [*] is the work of
Guenter Roeck:
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/blob/master/rootfs/arm/run-qemu-arm.sh

However I can see than none of the board listed by Corentin are tested
... That reminder me I never succeed at using the Cheetah PDA. So the
OMAP310 is probably bitroting in QEMU...

[*] and slowly add to upstream patches he sent that fell through the
cracks of qemu-devel.

Phil.
