Hi,
I just updated my qemu to git head version, and I found the qemu can not boot now, and the QEMU gives me message "Boot failed: could not read boot disk". And I also found if I put the line '-drive if=ide,index=0,media=disk,format=qcow2,file=winxp.qcow2' before 'drive if=ide,index=2,media=cdrom,file=$CDROM \', the boot will be OK.
Below is my qemu start script.
=====================
QEMU="/home/phuang/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm"
# QEMU="qemu-kvm"
CDROM=/dev/cdrom1
