I did give a try at your above ( strange ) stuff and not much works for me at all. I don't know quite why but I don't see a reason to keep poking it with a stick either. The installer works great for ppc64 across a number of configs and also on real hardware. Sorry. I did try a number of silly things however. ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ ls ppc64le.qcow2 ppc64le.sh ppc64.qcow2 readme resources ppc64@styx:~$ ls resources/ debian-10.0.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso openbios-ppc-grubfix debian-10.0.0-ppc64-NETINST-1.iso ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ ls /usr/local/bin/*ppc* /usr/local/bin/qemu-ppc /usr/local/bin/qemu-ppc64le /usr/local/bin/qemu-ppc64 /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc /usr/local/bin/qemu-ppc64abi32 /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc64 ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ uname -a Linux styx 4.19.0-9-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.118-2+deb10u1 (2020-06-07) x86_64 GNU/Linux ppc64@styx:~$ /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc --version QEMU emulator version 5.0.90 (v5.1.0-rc0-66-g1e6c50ad85-dirty) Copyright (c) 2003-2020 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc \ > -monitor stdio -M mac99 -k fr -machine accel=tcg \ > -m 512 \ > -cdrom ./resources/debian-10.0.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso \ > -hda ppc64.qcow2 \ > -virtfs local,id=shared_folder_dev_0,path=/home/ppc64,security_model=none,mount_tag=shared0 \ > -boot once=c,menu=on \ > -net nic,macaddr=00:a2:6d:80:10:8f,model=rtl8139 \ > -net user -net user,smb=/home/ppc64 \ > -rtc base=localtime -name "Debian + LXDE sur iMac G3" \ > -bios /home/ppc64/resources/openbios-ppc-grubfix qemu-system-ppc: Could not find '/usr/sbin/smbd', please install it ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ ppc64@styx:~$ /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc \ > -M mac99 -machine accel=tcg \ > -cdrom ./resources/debian-10.0.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso \ > -hda ppc64.qcow2 -boot once=c,menu=on \ > -bios /home/ppc64/resources/openbios-ppc-grubfix \ > -name "Debian + LXDE sur iMac G3" \ > -serial stdio -display none -vga none >> ============================================================= >> OpenBIOS 1.1 [Jul 18 2020 08:00] >> Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 1 >> CPUs: 1 >> Memory: 128M >> UUID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 >> CPU type PowerPC,G4 milliseconds isn't unique.
