  This is normal behavior.  -cdrom expects valid media for inserting
into the vm.  The vm will emulate a cdrom drive by default even if you
leave off -cdrom (the vm will have an empty virtual cdrom tray).  You
can use the qemu monitor to insert media later during the vm session.
ie:

Press ctrl-alt-2 to go to the qemu monitor

(qemu) change cdrom /dev/cdrom

Press ctrl-alt-1 to go back to the guest vga output.
