Current qemu sh4 system emulation does not support either usb host
or kernel boot command line.  You still need to apply some patches
to use those features.

Please check qemu-sh patch staging repository, which holds patches
for qemu-sh. README in it explains how to apply.
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=virt/qemu/lethal/qemu-sh.git;a=summary
To apply all them, you need to role back qemu to rev 6215, for now.


The patch for usb host is already posted to qemu-ml.  But I guess
patch for kernel boot command line for r2d is not yet posted.
Does anyone know who wrote the patch in qemu-sh staging repository?
