Have you tried installing it yourself from the iso ?

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
    -boot d -cdrom <path_to_iso> \
    -drive file=<path_to_disk_img>

I think that should be enough to install it and then you can use your command to boot it from disk.

Greetings,

I try to get 9front running in a x86_64 VM. From
https://9front.org/iso I have 9front-10277.amd64.qcow2. From
http://fqa.9front.org/fqa3.html#3.3.1 I created the command

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 \
-net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=00:20:91:37:33:77 -net user \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi \
-drive if=none,id=vd0,file=9front-10277.qcow2.img \
-device scsi-hd,drive=vd0

This will pop-up a small window with 9front where i can select
bootargs and user. Which is good. But I get an error:
bind: #i: no frame buffer

And then rio can not open display.

I get a (rc) shell, but would like graphics.

How do I add a frame buffer to either 9front-10277.qcow2.img or to the
QEMU command?

Best Wishes,
bengt
