Hey

I've been experiencing consistent kernel panics with the configuration
above and the -kernel-kqemu option. Solved it by simply ignoring the
BIOS's PCI table (kernel option pci=nobios).

Here's what the kernel spat out (if it helps):

general protection fault: 0060 [#1]

Hope this helps someone!
