Comment(by tvoverbeek):

 All 2.6.25 kernel builds (i.e. all recent joyrides and 8.2 builds) will
 not boot on the released qemu versions (Linux/MacOs/Windows). You need a
 version of qemu compiled from a recent subversion snapshot. Sayamindu has
 rpms for Linux. I personally have a recompiled Windows version which
 works.
 You have to give the extra argument '-cpu athlon' to qemu to get the 3dnow
 emulation.
