Hey!
Thanks for this but I don't think it work!

After running the command I see on qemu:
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

Then, I am trying to connect with the user pi to localhost using port 2222 and it doesn't work. Looking with netcat it says:
nc: connectx to localhost port 2222 (tcp) failed: Connection refused
Connection to localhost port 2222 [tcp/rockwell-csp2] succeeded!

Back to ssh, after long time waiting I'mg getting the error:

kex_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer
Connection reset by 127.0.0.1 port 2222

Can you help me and tell what am I doing wrong?

Wondering if some of the Catalina+ changes may be getting in the way here? I'll run some tests tomorrow and update with what I find.

yep. looks like this is a combination of Catalina and newer raspi images. Looks like the place I ref'd for the kernel image has this working in a much better format: https://github.com/dhruvvyas90/qemu-rpi-kernel/ (and they link to a docker image, also).
