[GSoC 2020]: Doubts related to testing for EPICS7+RTEMS5 (pc386) built using recipe.

[Mritunjay Sharma]

Hello all!

I tried to work on the testing part and here's what I did as per my
understanding:

I went inside the epics built by RSB recipe and ran "make runtests".
It gave results somewhat like this:

"Base.t ........ ok
Breaktable.t .. ok
DBD.t ......... ok
Device.t ...... ok
Driver.t ...... ok
Function.t .... ok
Menu.t ........ ok
Recfield.t .... ok
Recordtype.t .. ok
Registrar.t ... ok
Variable.t .... ok
All tests successful.
Files=11, Tests=293,  1 wallclock secs ( 0.05 usr  0.00 sys +  0.40 cusr
 0.06 csys =  0.51 CPU)
Result: PASS"

I also downloaded rtems-testing directory and tried to run simulator
using the tutorial here:
https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/Developer/Simulators/QEMU

However, I was encountered with this error when I entered:
```./sim-scripts/pc386 -i
~/development/rtems/kernels-5/pc-386/i386-rtems5/c/pc386/testsuites/samples/hello.exe```

Error: ```qemu-system-i386: Initialization of device ide-hd failed: Block
node is read-only```.

It is very much possible that I am following a wrong approach for testing.
I really look forward to you all to help me out with it and
also share some resources which can help me guide on what exactly I have
to proceed with ahead.

Thanks
Mritunjay
