This may not be helpful but I installed that exact image into real G5 hardware and it worked great. I am not sure what qemu does from a firmware perspective but I also have ppc64le running with qemu and it runs great. Something fishy about qemu here. I did a build of the qemu from sources : styx$ /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc64 --version QEMU emulator version 5.0.50 (v5.0.0-2005-geb6490f544-dirty) Copyright (c) 2003-2020 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers styx$ That thing runs great. What qemu are you running? -- Dennis Clarke RISC-V/SPARC/PPC/ARM/CISC UNIX and Linux spoken GreyBeard and suspenders optional
