[Note I'm not bothering with 32 bit ppc any more since it is effectively obsolete.]
Libguestfs now works on ppc64 using the 'direct' backend. You will need: - libguestfs 1.23.21 + 7f90aa0998 - supermin 4.1.x (only tested with supermin-4.1.5-2.fc21.ppc64, but earlier versions should work) - qemu-system-ppc64 compiled from git (qemu 1.4 & 1.6 known to be broken) - kernel-3.10.10-200.fc19.ppc64, earlier versions should work - real ppc64 hardware There are multiple bugs which stop you installing Fedora/ppc64 on qemu-system-ppc64 running on x86-64. Since Fedora 19 has dropped support for PR KVM, and since the Apple G5 I use for testing does not support real HV KVM, I could not test this using KVM, only using TCG. Next steps are: - run the full test suite and fix any problems (in progress) - get it working with the libvirt backend All features should be fully supported except the UML backend won't work (limitation of UML).
