Oh, I forgot, I'm the one who also reported this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/586175
qemu-kvm-0.12.4 with SeaBIOS 0.5.1 on Gentoo (No-Multilib and AMD64)
The install cd hangs at every combination of -fda/-cdrom/-hdc and
-drive, just like
> qemu-kvm -cdrom /srv/vm/win2k3srv.iso -hda /srv/vm/hive.vdi -fda
/srv/vm/virtio.img -boot d -vnc 192.168.0.1:0
Also interesting: I tried it with an already installed windows
installation in the image. When CD boots it asks for "Press any key to
boot from CD". After I pressed some key it changes the display
resolution from BIOS to 640*480 and nothing happens.
I just can't use qemu to virtualize my stupid Windows Server... -___-

You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu-

Status in QEMU: Incomplete
Bug description:
I have a second problem:
I wanted to install Windows Server 2003 on a virtio drive, so I tried to start
the machine with the install cd as the boot drive and a floppy image with the
viostor drivers. The problem is, the install cd hangs at boot time. If I start
VNC I just see a black ground with 640x480.
I've also tried this with the install cd of Windows Server 2008 R2 and it works!
Could it be that the BIOS screws up because the older install cds are using the
floppy emulation to boot the setup?
