I tried with -no-kvm and I get the same crash when I reboot the VM. I suppose it's a qemu bug then. I tried with the latest kvm-qemu (78) but perhaps I should try the latest Qemu and if it still breaks report the bug on the Qemu mailing list? It is like it forgets to boot the kernel and initrd again after a reboot and tries to boot from the harddrive instead.
