OK. I am now setting up a QEMU VM for PPC on a Raspberry Pi (arm64) running the latest
Rasbian. I am using the snapshot from March 30th. Since I am not using the package based install,
the installer fetched tarballs over the Internet. That worked. Will report once
the installation is done. Will take a while, I guess.

Best regards
