I've tried this on qemu and had the infamous "waiting for udev" problem Mark
also saw on Hydra before.

After rebooting, the same image worked fine.
The installer also works fine and looks great!

Also, I used the non-iso9660 disk image because the iso9660 disk image (not 
documented
on the page above either) has 1.5 MB (not a typo).
