Hi,
Short answer: does not work yet.
Long answer: based on the recent tests, I'd say the problem is more in the
Openprom implementation rather than Sparc v8 CPU or hardware emulation. It's
much harder to know what are the problems when working with closed source.
If you want to help, I'd suggest that trying to get Linux 2.4 series or some
BSDs boot would benefit also Solaris. Proll openprom.c is less than 1000
lines long and it's no rocket science.
If bugs in V9 emulation were fixed, there could be some chances of booting
recent Sparc64 kernels. Also a working prom with real OpenFirmware support
is needed and that does not exist yet.
More testing is always helpful.
