I have to admit that I did not read the whole blog post, I just quickly 
looked at the chinook target setup :)

The debian-etch devkit does not really have new features as such, just 
updated versions of the tools. Just as an example, the debhelper has been 
updated and you might not be able to build a package that use compat level 
5, which is not supported by the debian-sarge devkit.

Yes your instructions have the correct qemu version, but Luca's post 
revealed that he was using the 0.8.1 version.

I hope the final SDK released fixed any problems Luca had.
