Don't symlink, use -bios /usr/share/seabios/bios.bin instead.

It uses bios which is "certified" to run correctly with particular
version of qemu-kvm.  No one tested seabios-0.6 together with
qemu-kvm-0.12, while it is well-tested with 0.5.  In particular,
seabios-0.6 introduced native support for virtio block devices,
and for that to work properly, corresponding modifications has
to be done in qemu-kvm too.

Now while we're on it, can you please show the kvm command line
you're using?

Thanks!
