Subject: [Qemu-devel] OpenBSD/macppc and sparc64 failing to boot with similar error.
Date: Sun, 31 Jul 2011 20:33:11 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110801003308.GA99@rox.home.comstyle.com> (raw)

I know sparc64 had little chance of actually working but
I thought I'd take it for a spin with 0.15.0-rc1 and
see how it fared in addition to macppc which has a good
chance of working nowdays with modern QEMU. Lets see
what QEMU and related bugs are left..

I noticed the bootblocks for each respective arch are
failing in a very similar manner. I would guess that
this is most likely a bug with the OpenBIOS Open Firmware
implementation?

Any assistance with this? Blue?
