You can stick it into a config file[1] like this: [chardev "debuglog"] backend = "file" path = "/path/to/debug.log" [device] driver = "isa-debugcon" chardev = "debuglog" Then use "qemu -readconfig $file".
Great... at least in my opinion, one of the things that makes Qemu so much easier to use than Bochs is that one has a comprehensive (and comprehensable) command line and don't have to set up a configuration file for every trivial little thing. It's a good thing for long-living virtualization instances, but I would be sad if the command line will end up being neglected.
