Notes
Running OS/2 4.52 is currently broken in QEMU. It seems likely that ArcaOS 5.1 is broken for the same reasons. One confirmed issue is the incorrect emulation of the SGDT instruction, but there might be more (see QEMU issue 2198 Unable to run OS/2 Warp4.52 for details).
In fact, it's quite an old issue for QEMU since 2009... The main reason may be there are some incorrect statements in Intel's manual, but QEMU implements them 'accurately'. https://www.os2world.com/oldforum/index.php?topic=2035.0 https://www.os2world.com/forum/index.php?topic=1092.0
I've been keeping an eye on this...
There has been a bit of movement on this over the past few months in upstream QEMU: a patch exists in QEMU 9.1 that resolves the OS2LVM TRAP 000E crash (https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2198 and https://patchew.org/QEMU/[email protected]/).
This then led to another fault in networking stack using TCG emulation backend. A patch was written (https://patchew.org/QEMU/[email protected]/), which allegedly resolves but isn't accepted in to upstream yet.
It seems like it is just a matter of time though until we get OS/2 and modern derivatives working in QEMU (and UTM once they use a later QEMU version).
