could you be more specific about the exact commandline options, .img and .iso
used?

if i use a working hd.img, or a working cdrom.iso, qemu boots to that. 

when i created an empty hd.img and cdrom.iso, it fails to boot, but gives
expected error messages (i.e. boot from hard disk, boot from floppy, boot from
cd...) and errors out with no bootable device.

if i specify to do network boot (with "-boot n"), it finds pxe-e1000.bin just
fine, and boots from that. pxe-e1000.bin should be a symlink to the relevent
etherboot-qemu rom (which is a dependency of qemu-system).

live well,
