In b37fc148bb81b5b022846156a6cba266e6c23962, PReP default cpu was changed from

This repairs following command line, which is available in some tutorials:
qemu-system-ppc -kernel zImage.prep -fda debian_install_root.bin -M prep

Weak nack. I guess this depends more on the image than on the command
line. If at this point we change the default CPU for -M prep, we would
need to start creating prep-1.0 etc. which I would like to avoid as long
as possible...

I'm using floppy images available at
http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-powerpc/current/prep/images-1.44/
more specifically root.bin
The default cpu has already been changed once between 0.11 and 0.12, so I think it's not impossible to change it once more. Moreover, I don't think prep emulation is used in any production environment...


Did you happen to found out which physical machine 'prep' corresponds
to? If so, what CPU did it have?
It seems that 'prep' emulates a Motorola, maybe the PowerStack/BlackHack, but I'm not sure...

The Sandalfoot supposedly had a 601, the BeBox a dual 603.

With 601, Open Hack'Ware doesn't work.
With 602, the Debian installer doesn't start.
With 603, the Debian installer starts.
With 604, Open Hack'Ware doesn't work.

Will you accept a patch to change '602' to '603'?

Hervé
