[Bug 835818] [NEW] Can't boot qemu w/o kvm (no boot=on param, upstream patch)

[Drew Scott Daniels]

Public bug reported:

I can't boot ReactOS's qemu when using libvirt, but I can from the command line when I remove the -drive parameter's "boot=on," text (along with vnc and -S to get it to show a window and start outside of libvirt).
http://sourceforge.net/projects/reactos/files/ReactOS/0.3.13/ReactOS-0.3.13-REL-qemu.zip/download

The problem *seems* to be patched upstream at:
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=e7da872294bd1cfaa9733e1292476221659ab47b
The git tree shows version 0.8.2 for this patch so Lucid is affected, maverick and later likely aren't affected.
