Hey Peter,

That's a good question, I meant to specify that in the cover letter
but forgot to.

You will need to set this in your local.conf:
    XILINX_QEMUBOOT = "1"

You will then need to delete your tmp directory and rebuild the
machine (otherwise the changes don't propagate).

After that it should work.

Thanks,

Alistair
