I have found that I can get to the installer if I give the -no-acpi argument.

As others have noted, Netexnta is very slow. To get any sort of speed I used the 32-bit version and disabled QEMU disc caching, thus:

qemu -drive file=nexenta3.0.1,index=0,media=disk,cache=unsafe -cdrom nexenta-core-platform_3.0.1-b134_x86.iso -boot d -k en-us -m 512 -enable-kvm -no-acpi

Even then, performance is painful.
