(option 2 will
probably work for you with few changes).
Does NetBSD use flattened device trees at all? KVM (Qemu) supplies a
stripped-down device tree to the guest so that the guest won't try to
access IO devices not currently emulated by qemu. If BSD has a
hardcoded
device configuration system
doesn't either.
So since PowerPC NetBSD has build-time tables describing the hardware it
will try to use. I see the following options:
1) Teach NetBSD about flat device trees. Probably a lot of work.
2) Emulate more 85xx hardware in qemu. Maybe an easy to medium amount of
work, depending
