Error: running qemu on powerpc

I have installed qemu-0.13.0 on x86 system. I downloaded debian-powerpc image from http://people.debian.org/~aurel32/qemu/powerpc/ and used it with this command

$qemu-system-ppc -hda debian_lenny_powerpc_small.qcow2 -nographic

This is the cpuinfo of the guest os (debian-507-powerpc (2.6.26-1-powerpc) )

After that, I installed qemu-0.13.0 on that guest os , and tried to run the same debian-powerpc image on it.

$qemu-system-ppc -hda debian_lenny_powerpc_small.qcow2 -nographic

The boot process got stuck with this:

Thanks,

When you use -nographic you cannot see the boot progress.

It usually takes a very long time from "returning from prom_init" to "Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 debian-powerpc ttyPZ0".
