Sparc32 system emulator tests

Tested installing with a CD image. Direct kernel means using  -kernel 
option.
Serial (opposite of graphical) uses -nographic option.

Colour map is slightly buggy on most installs. Bug in OpenBIOS within Forth
function 'interpose' prevents BSDs from working.

Aurora 1.0 graphical: install complete
Aurora 2.0 graphical: media check stuck at 99%, X starts, installing 
packages
Aurora 2.1 graphical: installer thinks CD is not correct
Debian 3.1 R1 graphical: hangs
Debian 3.1 R1 serial: install complete
Gentoo 1.4 RC5 graphical: shell prompt
Gentoo 2004.1 graphical: shell prompt, keys repeat
NetBSD 1.6.1 graphical: loader can't find kernel (interpose)
NetBSD 2.0 direct kernel serial: panic at bootpath
NetBSD 2.1 graphical: loader can't find kernel (interpose)
NetBSD 3.0 graphical: loader can't find kernel (interpose)
OpenBSD 3.5 direct kernel serial: immediate fault
OpenBSD 3.9 graphical: loader can't find kernel (interpose)
OpenBSD 4.0 graphical: loader can't find kernel (interpose)
OpenBSD 4.0 direct kernel serial: immediate fault
Red Hat 4.2 Zoot graphical: Cannot open /dev/kbd, keyboard doesn't work
Red Hat 4.2 Zoot serial: hangs
Sparc-test 2.0 graphical: shell prompt
Sparc-test 2.0 serial: shell prompt
Splack 8.0 graphical: keyboard doesn't work
Splack 8.0 serial: hangs, problems with serial?
SuSE 7.3 graphical: X starts, mouse doesn't work

Sparc64 system emulator tests

Kernel not reached, crashes in OpenBIOS while executing Forth (hard to 
debug).

Sparc64 user emulator tests

A helloworld program made with hand crafted assembler executed correctly.
More complex programs die in ld-linux.so before reaching main.

For your information I recently tried to build gcc 4.1 in bootstrap mode
on both QEMU and real hardware (SparcStation 4) for C, C++, objc and
fortran. I than run the testsuite.

The testsuite gave identical results on both emulated and real hardware.
More impressive the binaries (including all .o files) in the build tree
were the same, minor strings containing hostname and date/time.

I used an SVN version of QEMU plus a few patches that have been applied
since then, except the std/stda in delay slot one.
