Finally got back in a position to spend some more time on this. Sorry for the
delay.
Ok, I'm trying just to boot to a command prompt with a serial console and IDE
/dev/hda. (Or funky scsi IDE /dev/sda in a pinch.)
Your .config is for a 2.6.26 kernel and I'm building 2.6.30, so I have to run
make oldconfig against it (and just hit enter on everything to take the
defaults). Also, I'm not using an initramfs at the moment, so presumably
anything that's in a module can go because it won't get loaded before I get a
shell prompt anyway, so I can yank anything config =m, and the module
infrastructure itself, to simplify things a bit.
That gave me the (much smaller) attached .config, which _should_ work the same
as yours, I hope? Note that CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE is on, so I should be
able to get a serial console, which is my first target: get boot messages from
this kernel.
I built a kernel using the attached .config and my existing powerpc toolchain
(which built a kernel that booted under older qemu), and attempted to boot the
result under current git (28e738dcb81d):
qemu-system-ppc -M g3beige -nographic -no-reboot -kernel zImage-powerpc
-hda image-powerpc.sqf -append "root=/dev/hda rw init=/usr/sbin/init.sh
panic=1 PATH=/usr/bin console=ttyS0 "

At which point it exits and I get the prompt back.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
