Andrew, you might want to update the examples on that wiki: it looks
like with recent changes that "-sd" was temporarily insufficient for
getting a proper instance running.
Maybe you should also add some examples that use the -drive/-device
combo that we canonically support in addition to the sugared -sd/-hda.
Mats: for now, try grabbing the latest qemu master, it fixed a bug with
-sd. :)
