USB keys (storage devices) were the primary target I used for testing.
In fact, with EHCI I can run a linux guest from a USB key just fine -
something I just verified again:
qemu-kvm -usbdevice host:${USBDEV}
where USBDEV is the vendor:product id from lsusb. Add other args to
install from a CD/DVD to the USB key. If your mileage varies first and
foremost make sure the VM is using kvm -- speed is horrible with qemu/tcg.
