I'm attempting to boot a Linux disk image with the SYSLINUX boot
loader using the -nographic option. On the latest qemu CVS, the boot
loader hangs before printing "Ready" and booting the kernel. But if I
use the same version of qemu with the BIOS from 0.8.2, it boots just
fine.

More testing reveals that -nographic has nothing to do with the
problem. The FC6 diskboot.img (which uses SYSLINUX) doesn't boot, even
without -nographic:

The FC6 boot.iso (which uses ISOLINUX) boots fine:

 http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/6/i386/os/images/boot.iso

as does diskboot.img with bios.bin 1.14 or earlier.
