I got to livecd prompt, with working keyboard using the following command
line:
qemu-system-ppc64 -boot d -cdrom install-powerpc-minimal-2008.0.iso
-cpu 970fx -M mac99 -usb -usbdevice keyboard
At boot prompt, I just hit enter to select a G5 kernel.
Wow, it indeed works! Later Gentoo releases fail in a way similar to
Debian (an early hang). Did you fight your way through the contorted
Gentoo install in order to see if you get a bootable system? (I'll try
that when I have time.)
The default nic cannot be used, -net nic,model=e1000 is needed.
I started a page that intends to save others from the trouble I have.
It is at <http://gmplib.org/~tege/qemu.html>. I'll try and collect
enough info for getting started, or save others from wasting time on
things that do not work.
address@hidden might block this message. It lastly tried to
pseudo-mail back using an incorrect address, then reject my messages
with a 550 code. Some anti-spam mechanism gone bad.]
