This is completely orthogonal.

What I was talking about was a way to do:

     qemu -C my-machine.qvm

instead of

    qemu -m 512 -kqemu -no-reboot -nographic -serial stdio \
        -net vde,vlan=0,sock=/var/run/qemu-vde.ctl \
        -net nic,vlan=0,macaddr=53:64:10:12:47:31 \
        -name my_machine -boot c my-machine.img
