Does it work on linux ppc64? If so
Haven't had a chance to test on other ppc[64] platforms yet.
how exactly did you test that
(so that i can try to debug it here)
$ /Users/andreas/QEMU/latest64/bin/qemu-system-sparc64 -boot d -cdrom /
Users/andreas/QEMU/sol-10-u3-ga-sparc-dvd.iso
$ /Users/andreas/QEMU/latest64/bin/qemu-system-sparc64 -boot d -cdrom /
Users/andreas/QEMU/debian-40r3-sparc-CD-1.iso
All these (also MilaX, in case you don't have Solaris 10 around) are
expected to enter OpenBIOS and result in OpenBIOS errors but not in
QEMU crashes or hangs.
On Linux add -nographic.
qemu-system-ppc appears to hang on ppc64 but doesn't on ppc.
Ditto.
$ /Users/andreas/QEMU/latest64/bin/qemu-system-ppc -boot d -cdrom /
Users/andreas/QEMU/debian-40r4a-powerpc-netinst.iso
On OSX/ppc64 this never got past the OpenBIOS banner and eventually
crashed:
Starting program: /Users/andreas/QEMU/latest64/bin/qemu-system-ppc -
boot d -cdrom /Users/andreas/QEMU/debian-40r4a-powerpc-netinst.iso -

Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0 built on Sep 11 2009 06:53

The upper bt showed something like helper_lsw only, iirc.
This is at QEMU 749717a0ea2f60d33d01c1e37fa24dfa7250dfc0, using the
binary blobs on OSX/ppc64 and with or without latest OpenBIOS versions
on OSX/ppc.
