All of the OS 9 patches for QEMU and OpenBIOS have been upstreamed,
except this one for OpenBIOS:
https://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/openbios/2015-June/008722.html. I
currently keep a manually build binary at
https://www.ilande.co.uk/tmp/openbios/openbios-ppc for people who can't
build their own.

Hmmm if that's the same 9.2.1 image we were using for last year's GSoC
then it has been working fine here? From what I've seen both 9.2.1 and
9.2.2 now boot fine, but please test and report if that's not the case.


ATB,
