I also see waiting for root device on Mac OS 10.2. Mac OS 10.0 has a kernel panic. Excellent job. This patch is a step in the right direction.

Too bad this patch comes a day after QEMU 1.3.1 is released. Hopefully it will be included in the next release.

Does anyone know what is wrong with the Mac99 target? I think it has the potential of being a better target than an emulated Beige G3.
