Please keep the communication public.  I'm dealing with
the bug report, I'm not here for general personal help.

Hi
thank you !

I tried with 2 different boot disks. Here please find the disk.
when I do fdisk, it says that there is no new disks.

Please ask for windows-specific issues in appropriate place.

the bios I use it the default one provided by the package. THis free boch one like. I made screenshots, somewhere, if you want.

my commads, were :
qemu -no-kqemu -fda windowsseima.ima -hda disk.img -boot a
or
qemu -no-kqemu -fda windowsseima.ima -hda disk.img
then press f12 and select floppy
i get that floppy booting
and no c

I tried your commands with the same version of qemu as you're
using here, just in case.  I knew it works, and it indeed works.
I also tried qemu from etch (previous version of debian), and
from sid (0.11.0).  It all works as intended.  As it should be,
after booting your winSE bootdisk with just-created hdd image
i can successfully run fdisk program from that floppy image
and create a windwos partition on the hard drive (I just hit
"Enter" several times, by default windows fdisk will create
single partition of maximum possible size).  Next it suggested
to reboot, which I did, and on second reboot i was able to
format the newly created drive c: and use it.  _Exactly_
the same as it's done on a real PC.

The tests were done with raw and stuff cow, same result. no disk can be recognize after qemu-img. No information and help can be provided into the man pages.

There's no man pages about windows in the qemu package.

Also nothing is indicated how to change the cdrom, when I boot from cdrom iso, :?

This is covered by the qemu documentation.  See either www.qemu.org
or /usr/share/doc/qemu/.

Neither of your usage questions counts as a bug in qemu.
