Yeah, I got that same error trying to boot it in qemu in vga mode and
console mode. I also see where you were hard at work poking the OpenBios
devs :)

It's weird, I can't get the boot_loader_openfirmware going on qemu or my
PowerBook Bronze G3. They both get stopped at about the same place.
QEMU OpenFirmWare:

From the information above it seems like both QEMU and the Lombard stop at
the exact same place. It's weird though, I swear this was working 100% on
my newer G4 in November 2008 and I could get to the boot menu. Maybe
something was handled differently in the Lombards OpenFirmware/OpenBIOS?
Maybe the older OpenFirmware is not complete somehow? I need to piece back
together my G4 quicksilver temporary and try this on it to check the
results.
Thanks!
