qemu goes:

And then hangs. I've never figured out why it clears the screen first
(none of the other targets do), but I _have_ figured out that the
unhandled exception is "kernel command line too long". Because 197 bytes
is just too much data for Sparc to cope with.

This is now fixed in OpenBIOS SVN trunk, and so should be included in QEMU 1.5 when we update the images in git master. Thanks for the report!


ATB,
