The short version "Yes".

The longer version:

With "qemu-system-sparc64 -m 512 -kernel vmlinux -append console=ttyS0
-serial stdio" I got graphical output - one penguin.

With "qemu-system-sparc64 -m 512 -kernel vmlinux -append console=ttyS0
-nographic" I got no graphical output, as implied by the -nographic
option. But the boot continued - where it would panic before when we
accessed IO memory as system memory.

In both cases I got an error because I had not specified any rootfs, so
qemu failed to mount any rootfs. So expected.
