QEMU command without KVM on macOS Intel: qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 1024 -kernel uImage -drive format=raw,file=MintPPC32-X5000.img,index=0,if=virtio -netdev user,id=mynet0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=mynet0 -append "rw root=/dev/vda" -device virtio-vga -usb -device usb-ehci,id=ehci -device usb-tablet -device virtio-keyboard-pci -smp 4 -vnc :1
I was able to boot the above (on powerpc, but not using KVM), using my fixes branch. Please give that branch a test: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git/log/?h=fixes cheers
