Romain Naour 7dcb9e98b5 board/qemu: remove the Qemu version from readme.txt
The Qemu version present in readme.txt files was needed when
the Buildroot's Qemu defconfig was tested manually using the
qemu-system-<arch> binary already present on the host.

This information is now incorrect since we are using host-qemu
package, currently at 4.2.0 version, to do a runtime test since
0c79350638.

For m68k-q800, we can use the upstream qemu since 4.2.0 release
[1].

So, remove this line from the readme.txt.

Run the emulation with:

 qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries -cpu POWER7 -m 256 -kernel output/images/vmlinux -append "console=hvc0 rootwait root=/dev/sda" -drive file=output/images/rootfs.ext2,if=scsi,index=0,format=raw -serial stdio -display curses # qemu_ppc64_pseries_defconfig

The login prompt will appear in the terminal that started Qemu.
