I have installed a complete debian.
I have had the very same problem: sometimes qemu freezes.
There is no apparent cause-effect relationship, qemu freezed at random
stages of the installation process any time the procedure was restarted.
I succeeded in installing the debian but after several attempts.
It seems to be a timing fault on the simulated ide.
When it freezes, it stops into a low level infinite loop: neither
clicking on the window to grab the mouse nor ctrl-c on the calling
terminal produce effects.
This is the only visible bug of qemu.
In debian both the network interface and the floppy work perfectly.
On the other hand when I boot Win98 into qemu I can't push ne2000 and
floppy drive to work.
The "floppy" problem is funny: it is recognized and used at boot time
(e.g. to boot with the rescue disk) but it fails to access the floppy
after a complete win boot.
