> ppc64-softmmu is a superset of ppc-softmmu which in turn is a superset Hi Thomas, Per curiosity. I understand that a 64-bit ppc CPU is expected to support 32-bit ppc code, but does QEMU really need to emulate setups that likely never existed in real life (like a PowerMac G5 or a pSeries with an internal floppy disk controller for example) ? I ask because Murilo and I had a chat about removing CONFIG_FDC from default-configs/ppc64-softmmu.mak the other day :) Cheers, -- Greg > of ppcemb-softmmu.
