Is there a howto on the web page to show how to use this sim environment? This is really cool.
I put up a basic page today that should help someone get started. It's at http://www.linuxbios.org/AMD_SimNow and it's linked to from the homepage, down by QEMU.
I noticed your part about the serial port.
Interacting with the serial port is difficult since you have to write to one file and read from another. I wrote a tool to help with that; it muxes the serial pipes into a telnet server. All you have to do is run the tool along side SimNow, and then telnet into port 9000 on your box, and you're in. You can also output the muxed pipes to a pseudo-tty and access it with Minicom, but I really find the telnet interface much easier.
I put the tarball here: http://linuxbios.org/~jcrouse/snserial-1.0.tar.gz
I'll write up some instructions on the SimNow page on how to use it.
