It doesn't hang. It tries to display stuff on the graphical screen which you disabled. You need to tell the kernel to use the serial console. I take it back and say "it appears to hang to a naive user".
I suppose I'll wait until I can find some documentation, such as a simple example from which to start, and stop DOSing your developers' mailing list with my qemu troubles. :-) > If you need performance for this, please just grab a PPC machine and > use KVM on it.

If you want to actually do *something useful, I'd recommend KVM. You might have different goals than me. Speed is nice, and sometimes critically important. But for my project to get (pseudo) access to lots of more hardware for GNU software testing purposes, speed is not a major issue. Stability, robustness, reproducibility, documentation, are critically important to me. -- Torbjörn
