I've used the gem5art and slightly modified the runscript not to run spec benchmark and run /bin/bash instead. It seems that this error has happened a while ago and issued in here. It seems that this problem has been fixed by the gem5 v19 but got the same error code. Could anyone explain why this error happens and how to fix it?
