images in qemu

Hi.
I seem to be having some minor trouble running the daily built vmware/QEmu images of haiku. Yeah I know they aren't meant to be "Stable" but that isn't exactly the problem I have been having.
The problem I'm having is that it doesn't seem to boot past the BIOS, which I'm sure can't be right. In fact I tried several images, but with identical results. A screenshot of what the problem is can be found here: http://image.bayimg.com/hailgaabj.jpg
but basically it seems that HD 1 is not detected.

To be honest. The problem is probably me not knowing how to use QEmu or something like that, but I just wondered if anyone else could shed any light on this?

For the record I'm on debian etch, with qemu 0.8.2

Apologies if I should have rtfm.

cheers

Tim

kvm -hda haiku.image -hdb hdb.img -cdrom /dev/cdrom
thats how it works under my ubuntu linux...
under win xp i use qemu, but i don't have the command by hand...
so maybe it helps you....

in slackware 12
install qemu 9.1 from a package is the easiest...
compile kqemu and install (optional)
modprobe kqemu (optional)
qemu ./haiku.image

and it will boot... at least it does for me
