Qemu on amd64 does not boot installation CDs

[Siju George <sgeorge.ml@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Qemu installed fine on my amd64.
I tried booting archlinux and ubuntu with it but it would start and
then get stuck while booting the installer CD.

Anybody using qemu on amd64?

Also is anybody using amd64 as desktop? ;-)

thanks
