Yes, I do not have disk, but it is not needed at all. I can boot that image
on the system without any disk.
But I have tried it also with disk:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/disk bs=1048576 count=2048
-rw-r--r-- 1 pavel users 2147483648 May 2 15:52 /tmp/disk
./qemu -cdrom /tmp/Solaris-9-x86/sol-9-u6-install-x86.iso -hda /tmp/disk -boot d
Both disk and CD are identified in BIOS:

But the result is the same.
I tried to boot from the same ISO using vmware without disk with success
(http://tmp.janik.cz/QEMU/vmware-Solaris-9-x86-install.png).
I also tried to boot using Bochs (unbeliavably slow ;-):
http://tmp.janik.cz/QEMU/bochs-2.1.1-BIOS.png
http://tmp.janik.cz/QEMU/bochs-Solaris-9-x86-install.png
but it is the same as using QEMU, ie. doesn't boot.
