This patch adds a "--bios" command line option to "vm run". You can use this to
try to boot with SeaBIOS, for example:
./vm run --bios=/usr/share/seabios/bios.bin \
--disk $HOME/images/debian_lenny_amd64_standard.qcow2
This doesn't boot yet for obvious reasons but at least people can now start to
play with external BIOS images easily.
