Yes, it can handle virtio-blk (and soon virtio-scsi too).
You probably want to implement the fw_cfg (firmware config) interface
which is used as communication path between qemu and seabios, to pass
around stuff like e820 table and option roms.
Also http://sgabios.googlecode.com/svn/trunk is nice when working with a
serial console.
