I've been fixing a few simple bugs with the emulation images
in joyride.  I only tested with qemu because I don't have
VMware or virtual PC.

I believe that if we want to grow a larger developer community,
we should give more attention to the emulation images.

Please, report emulation specific bugs in trac and, optionally,
assign them to me.  I'll try to fix them myself or reassign
them to the right people.
