What I do is use the -L / -bios options to specify a boot ROM, the same
way we can do for other machines. Maybe this scheme is not applicable to
all machines (?).
The only ennoying thing I see is that I have to give qemu a fake disk
image because qemu never wants to run if it has no bloc device
specified, which is a pity when the target machine do not have any bloc
device available.
