More weirdness with direct booting - using more than 2048MB causes the BIOS to 
repeatedly crash out. This only happens using "-kernel" and "-initrd".

I tried with -no-kvm and I get the same crash when I reboot the VM. I suppose 
it's a qemu bug then. I tried with the latest kvm-qemu (78) but perhaps I 
should try the latest Qemu and if it still breaks report the bug on the Qemu 
mailing list? It is like it forgets to boot the kernel and initrd again after a 
reboot and tries to boot from the harddrive instead.

Cheers,

Direct kernel booting is supported.  Please try with -no-kvm to see if 
it is a qemu or kvm issue, and also try the latest release to see you 
aren't encountering an already-fixed bug.
