Hello again,
I now find some little time to load and test the demo cd.
I forgot that zetaboot.img is the first track of the cd. So you need to
extract the boot-floppy-file first. You can do this with isobuster for
instance. With this BootImgage.img you can emulate a proper boot disk.
But for one reason or another this is not the only problem. So I´m sorry
to not help you any further. I simply forget how I created my BeOS/ZETA
HD image :-(
Greetings,
Chris

That gets me (with -fda substituted for -floppy, which isn't a valid
option) an error from the QEMU BIOS that the disk is not bootable.
It's too large (1.8Mb) to fit on a regular floppy anyhow.

Sorry, haven´t the files here till now.
But maybe you could try something like that:
qemu -floppy zetaboot.img -cdrom zetacd.img -boot a
If I get the live cd the next days I´ll try with it myself.
Greetings,
