Thanks! I tried adding “-no-acpi” to the QEMU command line and that eliminated the messages from QEMU, but the Linux installer still failed. I then tried using “-append noacpi” on the QEMU command line, but that is only available with one also uses “-kernel”. So I guess one can’t boot an installation CD this way.
