Hi Scott, thanks for the reply,about: I don't know what you mean by "working only on emb side".thru qemu 2.5 i can use only ppcemb as kvm not ppc64 or ppc 
Dont have the Kvm-pr is a really unhappy news, it means we will not have the opportunity to run for example Mol-kvm on  this machine.
about:KVM for e5500 uses hardware hypervisor featureslook like hypervisor is disabled because the main Hardware is too young and need a better knowledge.

Thanks for your time and infos
Luigi
