[ARM] hrev54396 where is a kernel file?

Hi,

As Topic!

The ARM port is not anywhere near complete, so we are not really providing binaries yet.

Tell me how to test a port without kernel? With Qemu-Arm, look at the Emulating ARM Image in ​https://www.haiku-os.org/guides/building/compiling-arm

Your question is not clear. "as in title" does not work. Do you want to download a prebuilt kernel from us? then the answer is, it's not available. Do you want to build a kernel yourself? In that case, it is where you expect it in generated/objects, and you could use the "find" command to locate it (./haiku/x86_64/release/system/kernel/kernel_x86_64 for x86_64 and I would guess ./haiku/arm/release/system/kernel/kernel_arm) for ARM.

In either case this does not deserve a bugreport because there is no bug. If you need help, ask on the forum, mailing list or IRC channel.

Finally, note that the kernel on its own is unusable: our boot system relies on the bootloader to do a lot of the setup work so the kernel can start in a known environment. Which is why the instructions show you how to start the bootloader (not the kernel) in qemu. And with the bootloader being converted to EFI as we speak, these instructions will need some changes. We will update them when we have the EFI loader reasonably up and running and the patches merged.

Thanks you! for explanation
