I downgrade qemu,fedora can start now. But fedora can not connect to the internet in qemu,it is strange.The log file is attached.
For connect to the internet you need configure ethernet in l4linux. I didn't do auto configuration in this rootfs. Try do: ifconfig eth0 up dhclient eth0& - if you use dhcp server in your network.
My research is based on the network of l4linux running on real machine,I think if i have a try of your experiment about network performance of l4linux ,it would help me a lot. My PC hardware: motherboard: Intel Q77 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz Ethernet: intel 82579LM RAM: 4G I burn the fedora.iso in a cd,try to run it on my PC,but the l4linux hangs,show these message:

I am not sure whether it's something wrong during my build process or my hardware don't fit the l4linux. Could you make your fedora.iso file available on net ,so i can download and have a try .I think this would help me to find where is wrong.
I have issues with boot on real hardware too. I've tried use Grub 1, Grub 2 and iPXE for boot. My target PC has memory layout different from qemu, this part of log l4 bootstraper from my PC:
Limiting RAM region [ bce73000, bcffffff] { 18d000} to [ bce73000, bcffffff] { 18d000} due to 3024 MB limit Dropping RAM region [100000000, 23e5fffff] {13e600000} due to 3024 MB limit RAM: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009ebff: 635kB RAM: 0000000000100000 - 000000001fffffff: 523264kB RAM: 0000000020200000 - 000000003fffffff: 522240kB RAM: 0000000040200000 - 00000000bbd36fff: 2026716kB RAM: 00000000bcde8000 - 00000000bcde8fff: 4kB RAM: 00000000bce73000 - 00000000bcffffff: 1588kB
Memory is not continious. And Genode's memory manager has strange behavior with this. May be people from Genode can help with this. I've temporary solve this issue via hardcode start loading adress to 0x40200000 in iPXE multiboot loader. And I've modify bootstrap modaddr to 0x80000000. With these changes I can boot PC but have only 2G memory for using. I don't try to understand how to work it yet. I'm going to prepare more information and open issue on Genode's bug tracker.
Maybe you have the same issue for your hardware.
