The existing qemuppc

Ignore the previous update, hit save too soon.

This is the replacement of the current qemppc machine with a new qemu ppc
system emulation that is based on a real platform. This will likely be either
a 85xx or IBM pseries based qemu machine.

Preferably this enables a similar feature set to the other qemu machines (such as graphics,etc).

Now that the kernel version has been chosen @ 3.2, this will proceed to review.
Comment 4 Bruce Ashfield 2012-01-18 11:41:04 UTC
This merged to the tree. Any issues will be handled as separate bugs.

I tried sato images in nightly build 20120131-1 from below :
http://autobuilder.pokylinux.org/nightly/20120131-1/machines/qemu/qemuppc/
Now the qemuppc has supported graphics(x starts normally) ,both mouse and keyboard work normally and qemuppc nfs boot also work normally.
