IIRC the main thing that was lacking between SRM and the Evaluation Board PALcode that was used in MILO is the Console Callback (CCB) structure and routines. > Ah, gotcha.

It turned out to be irritatingly difficult to manage the data setup inside QEMU itself. Thus I came to be writing a custom PALcode image that makes a number of simplifying assumptions based on the ability to off-load some work to QEMU. r~
