Has anyone succeeded in booting a Linux 2.6 kernel on Qemu PPC? If so,
what distribution did you use?

Thanks,

I've never managed to boot a kernel I built.  A year ago I did manage to get 
the Ubuntu 5.10 bootable CD to boot though.  (Of course the _install_ CD 
refused to boot.  Possibly specifying a hard drive image as well as a CD 
confused it.)

I couldn't get anything newer to boot.  Possibly it was because I upgraded 
qemu?

Is -kernel expected to work with qemu-system-ppc?

I note that http://www.qemu.org/download.html has test images for sparc, arm, 
mips, misel, and x86.  I can attest that x86-64 also works, and could provide 
a test image if somebody wanted.

But they don't have a ppc test image, and I haven't managed to make one yet...
