Success with NetBSD 6.1.5 and Qemu 2.2.0

[Jason Stevens <jsteve%superglobalmegacorp.com@localhost>]

Just a FYI to let anyone interested that I've been able to boot up NetBSD
6.1.5 using stock Qemu 2.2.0.

I had to use the serial console, as the built in frame buffer/keyboard
combination doesn't seem to acknowledge the keyboard.  Heavy diskload will
get lost interrupts from either the rtl8029 or rtl8139 adapters (the e1000
caused some kernel issue).  NetBSD doesn't seem to get the boot variables
passed from OpenBIOS, but it's no biggie to type it in.

Here is my dmesg for booting up.

You are using a serial console, we do not know your terminal emulation.
Please select one, typical values are:


        vt100
        ansi
        xterm


Terminal type (just hit ENTER for 'vt220'): xterm
