3 PowerPC System emulator
4 -----------------------
6 Use the executable ``qemu-system-ppc`` to simulate a complete 40P (PREP)
7 or PowerMac PowerPC system.
9 QEMU emulates the following PowerMac peripherals:
11 - UniNorth or Grackle PCI Bridge
13 - PCI VGA compatible card with VESA Bochs Extensions
15 - 2 PMAC IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support
21 - VIA-CUDA with ADB keyboard and mouse.
23 QEMU emulates the following 40P (PREP) peripherals:
27 - PCI VGA compatible card with VESA Bochs Extensions
29 - 2 IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support
33 - PCnet network adapters
37 - PREP Non Volatile RAM
39 - PC compatible keyboard and mouse.
41 Since version 0.9.1, QEMU uses OpenBIOS https://www.openbios.org/ for
42 the g3beige and mac99 PowerMac and the 40p machines. OpenBIOS is a free
43 (GPL v2) portable firmware implementation. The goal is to implement a
44 100% IEEE 1275-1994 (referred to as Open Firmware) compliant firmware.
