BTW, is there a reason why a disk image is required when using the
-kernel option ?

In the following case: -kernel vmlinuz -append "nfsroot=blabla", we
could boot over the network, without the need for any disk image, but
Qemu wants to have a disk image. Is it mandatory ?

On Linux, -hda /dev/zero works fine, so I'd say there's no reason a
disk image is necessary.
