See

  git://repo.or.cz/qemu/rth.git axp-iommu-1

  git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/rth.git axp-qemu

  git://repo.or.cz/qemu-palcode.git

What's there is only slightly beyond what's described in

  http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-04/msg02500.html

Basically, there's now exactly enough support in the emulation PALcode
to convince Linux that it's running on SRM instead of MILO.

Virtio devices seem to work now.  I can mount virtio disks, and get a
dhcp lease from virtio-net.

That's about as far as I've been able to get so far with what's on
debian's install initrd.gz.  I had been about to say that the installer
hangs detecting cdrom media, but it seems to have worked this time.
Of course, I didn't actually have a cdrom configured...

I wonder if it was merely slow previously.  I seem to recall that I've
rebuilt the kernel non-generic since last time I tried...
