前面已经讲了gem5的SE（系统调用）模式，FS模式虽然慢了很多，但是功能强大些。下面开始介绍如何把环境弄好，以X86架构下的FS模式为例，在Ubuntu14.04 LTS环境下。
建议全程用root身份~
1.进入gem5目录下，编译X86架构
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5# scons build/X86/gem5.opt
2.下载X86架构对应的全系统文件，也就是disk
wget http://www.m5sim.org/dist/current/x86/x86-system.tar.bz2
3.下载alpha对应的全系统文件，这是因为后面会用到里面解压出来的一个文件。
wget http://www.m5sim.org/dist/current/m5_system_2.0b3.tar.bz2
4.gem5目录下新建个文件夹fs-image，进入该目录，解压x86-system.tar.gz
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5# mkdir fs-image
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5# cd fs-image
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5/fs-image# tar -xjf x86-system.tar.bz2
5.我第三步下载的alpha对应的全系统文件——m5_system_2.0b3放在Download目录下，将其解压，并将disks目录下的linux-bigswap2.img放到x86-system解压后的disks目录下。
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5/fs-image# cp /home/zzh/Downloads/m5_system_2.0b3/disks/linux-bigswap2.img disks/
root@ubuntu14:~# ls -a
. .. .bash_history .bashrc .profile .viminfo
root@ubuntu14:~# vim .bashrc
export M5_PATH=$M5_PATH:/home/zzh/gem5/fs-image/
7.使环境变量生效
root@ubuntu14:~# source .bashrc
8.进入gem5目录下，启动X86架构的FS模式
root@ubuntu14:~# cd /home/zzh/gem5
root@ubuntu14:/home/zzh/gem5# build/X86/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py
9.报了下面的错误：
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>",line 1,in <module>
File "/home/zzh/gem5/src/python/m5/main.py",line 400,in main
exec filecode in scope

system()
File "/home/zzh/gem5/configs/common/SysPaths.py",line 69,in system
raise IOError,"Can't find a path to system files."
IOError: Can't find a path to system files.
错误：Can’t find a path to system files.
解决办法：修改gem5目录下的configs/common/SysPath.py，将目录改成你现在的目录
except KeyError:
path = [ '/dist/m5/system','/n/poolfs/z/dist/m5/system' ]
except KeyError:
path = [ '/dist/m5/system','/home/zzh/gem5/fs-image' ]
10.重新启动，报了第二个错
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>",line 45,in disk
return searchpath(disk.path,filename)
File "/home/zzh/gem5/configs/common/SysPaths.py",line 41,in searchpath
raise IOError,"Can't find file '%s' on path." % filename
IOError: Can't find file 'x86root.img' on path.
错误：Can’t find file ‘x86root.img’ on path.
解决办法：修改Benchmarks.py文件，将x86root.img改为linux-x86.img
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5/configs/common$ vim Benchmarks.py
elif buildEnv['TARGET_ISA'] == 'x86':
return env.get('LINUX_IMAGE',disk('x86root.img'))
elif buildEnv['TARGET_ISA'] == 'x86':
return env.get('LINUX_IMAGE',disk('linux-x86.img'))
11.重新启动，命令行可以指定kernel和使用的disk-image，报下面的错误：Error opening /home/zzh/gem5/fs-image/disks/linux-bigswap2.img
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5$ build/X86/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py --kernel=x86_64-vmlinux-2.6.22.9 --disk-image=linux-x86.img
info: kernel located at: /home/zzh/gem5/fs-image/binaries/x86_64-vmlinux-2.6.22.9

panic: Error opening /home/zzh/gem5/fs-image/disks/linux-bigswap2@H_403_342@.img
查了查权限。。。
要sudo权限，上面那个启动命令。
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5$ sudo build/X86/gem5.opt configs/example/fs.py --kernel=x86_64-vmlinux-2.6.22.9 --disk-image=linux-x86.img
没问题了，会出现下面的输出
12.打开另一个终端，用于连接FS模拟的全系统。这里使用的是m5term，先编译安装这个工具，在gem5的目录下有。
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5$ cd util/term/
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5/util/term$ make
cc -o m5term term.c
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5/util/term$ sudo make install
[sudo] password for zzh:
install -o root -m 555 m5term /usr/local/bin
13.用如下命令连接，注意3456是个端口，是在上图里出现的端口3456，默认情况下启动的第一个端口都是这个，再接着开启第二个就会是3457。
zzh@ubuntu14:~/gem5/util/term$ sudo ./m5term 127.0.0.1 3456
然后就会有如下输出。。。到最后就显示已经连上了，已经是进入了模拟的系统里。【这个地方，很神奇，一般第一次连接的时候很快就进去了，但是之后就大概要花个几分钟。。。】

好了，下一篇接着讲，进入FS模式之后，如何运行自己的测试程序。。这个也稍微麻烦点，看下篇~~
