Does anyone have more details on this for me ? I just did a build and boot into
sato and everything worked here. Mouse was fine, opened the terminal, ifconfig
reports and up and running ethernet, and I can ping and ssh out of qemppc to
my host machine.

So I've got nothing to test here, since it all worked.

Note: there is one small change to runqemu that I can send along to enable the
keyboard in sato, but that's all that I have to go on.

Cheers,

Bruce
