Okay, so it appears to be a problem with something that is saved in the image. I can use the full cmd and it runs...

sudo /usr/bin/kvm -M pc-0.12 -enable-kvm -m 1024 -smp 1 -name newtuna -uuid 21a3c860-05b0-5dcf-cc8c-9243604f8e9b -localtime -boot c -drive file=win1.img -drive file=/mnt/isos/win2003/CRMEVOL_EN.ISO,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=2,format=raw -drive file=/mnt/isos/virtio-win-1.1.11-0.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,index=3,format=raw -drive file=/mnt/isos/viostor-31-03-2010-floppy.img,if=floppy,index=0,format=raw -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:68:23:96,vlan=0,model=virtio,name=virtio.0 -net tap,fd=58,vlan=0,name=tap.0 -chardev pty,id=serial0 -serial chardev:serial0 -parallel none -usb -usbdevice tablet -vnc :10 -vga cirrus

if I substitute
-drive file=win1.img
with
-drive file=/mnt/slices/newtuna.qcow2,if=virtio,index=0,boot=on,format=qcow2

it no longer works.
