I have to say thanks to Bobby Bruce! I saw you replied my email yesterday. But I didn't see it in my email list, so sorry about that.
https://www.mail-archive.com/gem5-users@gem5.org/msg21437.html  That's the mails.
I'm trying to use gem-gpu,  https://github.com/gem5-gpu, I don't know which version of gem5 they used. But I saw the img they used is  linux-bigswap2.img. I try to build my own ubuntu14 img file, but it always says

Run /sbin/init as init process
random: fast init done
Mount failed for selinuxfs on /sys/fs/selinux:  No such file or directory
random: init: uninitialized urandom read (12 bytes read)
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (638) terminated with status 1
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (648) terminated with status 1
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
init: ureadahead main process (641) terminated with status 5
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (651) terminated with status 1
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (654) terminated with status 1
init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning

So I want to try the linux-bigswap2.img, but the links I found in the Internet are invalid.

http://www.m5sim.org/dist/current/x86/x86-system.tar.bz2`
http://www.m5sim.org/dist/current/x86/config-x86.tar.bz2
Do you still have those files? Or do you know how to solve these problems? Thanks a lot!

Hi Xiang,

I would advise against using such old resources for current research. Using
an OS from a decade ago may not give you results that are accurate for
today's systems.

For "linux-bigswap2.img", this is just an empty disk image that was used as
swap space. You can probably use an empty file and it will probably work.
If that doesn't work, then you could create an empty disk image that is
formatted to be linux swap with qemu.

Cheers,
Jason
