    Hi Peter,

    sorry for the delay, here's my report. I got the qemu linux image from the
    qemu website and did the following:

    [boris@gollum:10:34:25:qemu:9553)-> qemu -kernel /boot/2.6.22-4fd06960f120e02e9abc802a09f9511c400042a5-12 -append "root=/dev/hda" linux-0.2.img

    and the kernel did boot just fine so the problem should be pertaining only to the
    case when we boot on the bare hardware...

    Boris.
