Hello world on qemu Raspberry Pi

1.Install Raspberry Pi qemu

git clone -b rpi https://github.com/Torlus/qemu/ qemu_rpi
cd qemu_rpi
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/qemu_rpi --target-list=arm-softmmu,arm-linux-user,armeb-linux-user --enable-sdl
make & sudo make install

run on Qemu

/usr/local/qemu_rpi/bin/qemu-system-arm -kernel boot.bin -cpu arm1176 -m 256 -M raspi -serial stdio

run on Raspberry Pi B+ board

1.download offical boot firmware，https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/tree/master/boot

copy start.elf, bootcode.bin to SD card。

2.copy boot.bin to SD card replace kernel.img，using UART port check result，console shows Helloworld.
