Known issues
- virtio-scsi is broken. The fix depends on a change currently in the USB tree and waiting to be included in master.
- Suggest using megasas for the test day.
- booting from usb-host devices is broken (and has been since 1.1). Regression introduced in commit a844ed8 (usb-host: attach only to running guest, 2012-06-08).
- TCG interpreter is broken. Build fixes are available, but running qemu-system-i386 fails very early.
