I added one to my repo to let travis run : https://github.com/legoater/qemu/commit/d5729f70f2abb0fca2e4167dacb0cf27e0dbaee5 > Probably best to get underway with the rom inclusion ASAP. I think Jeff is the person to talk to. Could we start mirroring skiboot, the firmware for PowerPC PowerNV platform, on git.qemu-project.org/. This is the official repo : https://github.com/open-power/skiboot/ Thanks, C.
