Arrvindh,

The error you are seeing when running under simics is consistent with a segmentation fault. Ruby will segfault if it is loaded before doing a read-configuration--the first thing that Ruby does at load-time is look for a "phys_mem0", but it doesn't check to see if the pointer to that object is NULL. As soon as it tries to use that pointer, of course, a segmentation fault results.
Can you send the list of commands you are using to run simulation?

Regards,
Dan

This appears for even the base MOSI_SMP_bcast protocol

***  Simics getting shaky, switching to 'safe' mode.
Simics (main thread) received a segmentation fault. Will try to recuperate.
