The command line is:

(x)ski bootloader your_kernel simscsi=your_diskimage

bootloader is created from the kernel sources

your_kernel must be configured with CONFIG_IA64_HP_SIM active
your_kernel does not need to be in the disk image

You'll find more information in the ski howto files.

If you have further questions there is a wonderful mailing list special 
for the simulator at lia64-sim@napali.hpl.hp.com . There are some really 
experienced experts listening.
