Installed 8.2 in kvm-0.15, running it in kvm-1.0 makes no
difference.  Command line is simple:

 kvm -m 512 -drive file=fbsd.raw,cache=unsafe \
   -cdrom FreeBSD-8.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso \
   -netdev type=tap,id=n -device e1000,netdev=n

(the cache=unsafe is just to speed the install up,
it makes no difference)

Tried running 7.4 from FreeBSD-7.4-RELEASE-i386-livefs.iso
(I haven't installed it, the install images are 600+ megs) -
this one appears to work just fine too, but obviously it
does not try to mount ide disk as its root fs.  I mounted
filesystems from fbsd.raw i created in previous step (for
8.2) -- it works as expected too.

So, in sum, I can't reproduce your _regression_ probs with
netbsd (I can't get it to work at all, hence no reguression
for me) and with freebsd.  The issue with openbsd is fixed.

I need help ;)

Thanks,
