The qemu-kvm could boot from SCSI disk image by utilizing seabios, this
patch ported codes
from qemu-kvm to let upstream qemu to support booting from SCSI disk image.
Add 'boot=on' option to qemu command line like following,
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=scsi-disk.img,if=scsi,boot=on

There is code indentation errors in my previous post, I am sorry for
that, please review this post.
The qemu-kvm could boot from SCSI disk image by utilizing seabios, this
patch ported codes
from qemu-kvm to let upstream qemu to support booting from SCSI disk image.
Add 'boot=on' option to qemu command line like following,
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=scsi-disk.img,if=scsi,boot=on

This horrible hack should die instead of been ported. It introduce more
problems that it solves. You want to boot from scsi disk? Add seabios
support for it.

Yes, I added seabios support, but still can not boot from scsi disk,
because seabios seemed
to depend on extboot.bin, I will investigate seabios SCSI further and
try it.
