Qemu 2.5 Solaris 8 and 9 sparc hang after terminal type menu

Qemu command:
qemu-system-sparc -nographic -monitor null -serial mon:telnet:localhost:3000,server -bios ../../Downloads/ss20_v2.25_rom -M SS-20 -hda ./solsparc -m 512 -cdrom ./sol-9-905hw-ga-sparc-dvd.iso -boot d -cpu "TI SuperSparc 60" -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=52:54:0:12:34:56


when i do disk2:d, the system loads until the terminal type menu.

What type of terminal are you using?
1) ANSI Standard CRT
2) DEC VT52
3) DEC VT100
4) Heathkit 19
5) Lear Siegler ADM31
6) PC Console
7) Sun Command Tool
8) Sun Workstation
9) Televideo 910
10) Televideo 925
11) Wyse Model 50
12) X Terminal Emulator (xterms)
13) CDE Terminal Emulator (dtterm)
14) Other
Type the number of your choice and press Return: 3
syslog service starting.
savecore: no dump device configured
Running in command line mode

And nothing happens after that. Anyone encountered this issue?

Does the boot log look like the "good" or the "bad" example from the link below?

This is no longer a problem (for sure in latest git, probably further back than that, as I installed Solaris 9/SPARC on SS-20 a few months ago):

Type the number of your choice and press Return: 3
syslog service starting.
savecore: no dump device configured
Running in command line mode
