Public bug reported:

To repeat:
  * Grab freedos ISO from from http://www.freedos.org/download/
  * Add it as a CD to your KVM guest
  * Boot and go through the defaults (I'm using a small - ~90MB - IDE hard 
drive raw image as the 1st IDE disk)
  * Go through all the defaults
  * Install FreeDOS to MBR (option 1 at the last question in the install - I 
also tried syslinux - it didn't help)

Watch it fail to reboot off the hard disk.

It hangs for me at 'Booting from Hard disk...'

(I also tried chainloading it off a Grub iso - didn't work, and I'm
seeing the same symptom with OpenDOS).
