Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kvm

i had maked a sco unix 5.05 guest system with kvm,but the guest system can't 
boot with hd boot set:
--------------libvirt xml config---
<boot dev='hd'/>
--------------libvirt xml config---
but if u set
--------------libvirt xml config---
<boot dev='cdrom'/>
--------------libvirt xml config---
and mount a iso with the cdrom device:
--------------libvirt xml config---
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
      <source file="some.iso"/>
      <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
    </disk>
--------------libvirt xml config---
and when the vm start,press F12 to choose the HD,the sco unix system can boot 
ok!

but,if u do not mout a iso img in the cdrom device:
--------------libvirt xml config---
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
      <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
    </disk>
--------------libvirt xml config---
it can't boot by F12 choose.

and:
--------------libvirt xml config---
<boot dev='cdrom'/>
<boot dev='hd'/>
--------------libvirt xml config---
can't boot too!
