I'm using Gutsy. I have created (qcow) qemu images from Feisty alternate installer, Gutsy alternate installer and Gutsy JeOS. All these images fail to mount the root filesystem.

I have attached a screenshot where booting the feisty image fails (I booted without quiet splash).

I was able to boot the Fedora 7 image I downloaded from oszoo.org :

I'm experiencing the same problem with kqemu,qemu and kvm :
qemu -m 512 feisty.img -no-acpi -snapshot -std-vga -no-kqemu
qemu -m 512 feisty.img -no-acpi -snapshot -std-vga
kvm -m 512 feisty.img -no-acpi -snapshot -std-vga

I had to use this workaround to be able to create the qemu images :
