Prepare the install.sh script to load the installation (graphical install ) qemu-system-hppa \ We create a 20GB qcow2 disk image to hold the HP-UX system $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 disk.img 20Gĭownload the ISOs (there are 4 ISOs to install HP-UX from and all are needed) wget '' Lets start by setting up the simulation environment on the Apple M1 for the HP-UX 11.11 and dedicate a working directory $HOME/HPPA/HPUX for the qcow2, ISOs and install/loader scripts Telnet client on the M1 MacOS (I compiled one from pkgsrc, or you can use Putty).A lot of patience and time (installation of HP-UX takes time) ☕☕☕☕☕☕☕.Approximately 20 GB of disk space on the Apple M1 SSD.Working instance of fresh qemu (recent git clone from ).So here we will use the verified HP-UX 11.11 2005-09-MCOE disk images and procedures to get almost full 32bit HP-UX experience on your modern Apple M1 hardware. The only version of HP-UX that installs and boots is HP-UX 11.11 2005-09-MCOE release, possibly the HP-UX 11.11 2006-12-MCOE (but I have not tested this one) I have tried to install/run on the Apple M1 10.20 and 11.00 and 11.11 from pre 2005 but none of them installed and qemu crashed (this could be an issue with Qemu) QEMU emulator version 5.2.92 (v6.0.0-rc2-66-gc1e90def01-dirty)Ĭopyright (c) 2003-2021 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers HP-UX can run under qemu-system-hppa simulator but only the PA-RISC1.1 versions and up to 11.11 Since the latest release of Qemu (from git April 2021)
Here we will only focus on the PA-RISC1.1 simulation under Qemu What is HP-UX ? Well it is one of the UNIX systems that was designed by HP (thus it is called HewlettPackard Unix) and runs on PA-RISC and IA64 CPU architectures. After some time I decided to write another entry here that some might find useful, especially if they wish to run HP-UX (32bit) guest under Qemu on their Apple M1 hardware.
