I have no idea if this works so testing and corrections are welcome

Why don't you test it on your own? I think this should be sufficient:

  make check-avocado AVOCADO_TAGS=machine:amigaone

Test doesn't pass :

C.


but this could be a basic test. Booting further is a bit more involved
as we'd need alternative VGA BIOS and selecting menu items in the
firmware to allow CD boot so I did not try to automate that.

This could be simpler if the u-boot-amigaone.bin could be added to
pc-bios. It's GPL so should be OK to include and distribute but irs
sources seem to be lost and could not be recovered or reconstructed so
we only have this binary. Who should be able to decide about that?

I'm sorry, but if the sources are not available anymore, then I think it will 
not be possible to ship the binary in the QEMU tarball - since the GPL requires 
that the distributor of the binary can also provide the sources on request.
