Hmmmm last time I tried I couldn't even get the IOService to match - 
maybe some of the recent IDE fixes in QEMU have got this to work?

Excellent :)

Have you had a look at the Darwin source to see how this is actually 
detected?

There seems to have been a lot to this thread over the weekend, however 
am I right in guessing that the primary change is switching the CDROM 
over from the CMD646 IDE bus to the MacIO IDE bus?

Will this actually work? Last I remember from Alex was that the Mac 
device model generated by QEMU would only work with MacOS <= 10.3, and 
the release notes in the same directory indicate that 801 is equivalent 
to the kernel for MacOS 10.4. It's for this reason that I've been using 
darwinppc-602.cdr.gz for all my tests here.

Also Amadeusz, didn't you have some extra patches for -M mac99 Darwin 
boot that still need to be reviewed by Alex?


ATB,
