When booting the xenial or bionic minimal images using qemu, their output goes to the serial console. A default invocation of qemu will not display the serial console output to the user, so it appears that boot has hung.
(This can be verified by pressing Ctrl-Alt-3 in the qemu console, which will display the serial console output.)
