Thomas, you were right !
In order to copy the partition with dd, and to manage to boot, we have to 
copy :
-the boot sector (if=/dev/hda and not if=/dev/hda1)
-the target partition for qemu (of course)
-AND the linux partition where grub comes from.

I managed to store these 3 things in the begining of the hard disk, so it 
takes me only 2.5Gb. correct.
