The installer unable to find the installation cd so it won't continue...


I'm currently installing Mac OS X DP1 on QEMU and followed all the steps described in the forum (link below). As what happened to some other people, the installer complains that it can't detect any installation cd.


here's the steps:
#Step 1: Boot Mac OS Server v1.2 iso: Format disk DP1.img to OSX server and start installation. Let it fail.
qemu-system-ppc-29052020.exe ^
-g 800x600x32 -M mac99,via=pmu-adb -m 128 -L pc-bios -sdl -boot d ^
-prom-env "auto-boot?=true" ^
-prom-env "boot-args=-v" ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-images\OSXServer1.2v3.iso",format=raw,index=0,media=cdrom ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-disks\DP1.img",format=raw,index=2,media=disk

#Shut down the machine.

#Step 2: Boot from DP1 cd.
qemu-system-ppc-29052020.exe ^
-g 800x600x32 -M g3beige -m 512M -cpu G3 -L pc-bios -sdl -boot d ^
-prom-env "auto-boot?=false" ^
-usb -device usb-kbd -device usb-mouse ^
-prom-env "boot-device=cd:9,\\:tbxi" ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-disks\DP1.img",format=raw,index=0,media=disk ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-images\DP1.iso",format=raw,index=2,media=cdrom

#At prompt, enter:
dev /
" PowerMac1,1" encode-string " model" property
" PowerMac1,1" encode-string " compatible" property
boot

#Wait for installer to finish with "Writing Open Firmware Info"

#Step 3: Boot from HD.
qemu-system-ppc-29052020.exe ^
-g 800x600x32 -M g3beige -m 512M -cpu G3 -L pc-bios -sdl -boot c ^
-prom-env "auto-boot?=false" ^
-prom-env "boot-args=-v" ^
-usb -device usb-kbd -device usb-mouse ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-disks\DP1.img",format=raw,index=0,media=disk ^
-drive file="C:\Mac-images\DP1.iso",format=raw,index=2,media=cdrom

#At prompt enter:
dev /
" PowerMac1,1" encode-string " model" property
" PowerMac1,1" encode-string " compatible" property
boot

Tell me in the comment if you manage to get it work.
Also, they say that it won't work on windows host (so i'll try fedora).
