[Enric Pedascoll Quingles]

i don't understand very well your answer, but i only want to run all
system (powerbookg4 with your all partitions) in a qemu session and
then i select in a yaboot menu "Linux Option" and work directli to
partition in snapshot file (or without them).

i try  with /dev/rdisk0 and /dev/rdisk0s1..s2.. and the same
result...qemu do nothing
