Qemu PPC MacOS 9 *need help*

[daschmc]

Need help setting up qemu-system-ppc. Due to missing template I used virt-manager to setup this VM. Folder "pc-bios" was manually added by myself to /usr/bin/ 

VM fails to boot

What am I missing?

I thought in 6.11.1 + there should already be qemu-ppc binaries? I'm not seeing them.

[daschmc]

They are at /usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc

but im not able to figure out how to manage libvirt

 

if i run ./qemu-system-ppc with args from cli it works

I am working this issue under another thread, used a couple pieces of your template merged with mine. Getting closer to a working solution I think.
