The qemu.run() method can break when a command happens to output the string "# " to stdout. This is because qemu.run() detects when a command has completed by searching for the shell prompt, which by default is "# ". It then captures everything before the "# " as the commands output, causing the rest of output to be lost. Instead use the pexpect libraries REPLWrapper to handle running commands. It has hooks to set a custom prompt and avoid some other pitfalls of wrapping a shell. We unfortunately can't reuse replwrap._repl_sh directly, because it tries to spawn a command while we already have a qemu started. So we need to copy that code into _repl_sh_child. While we're at it, also define our own prompt strings.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
