Yup, no partition are listed, this means that the kernel did not
detect the disk. The required block device driver and filesystem must
be built into the kernel (i.e. not as modules) or you will not be able
to mount access it.

In that case I am afraid the link I gave you will not be very helpful
- you just need to enable to right device driver. Unless QEmu did not
like your disk image, but in that case I guess it would have
complained.
