Trying to do an install on a remote server via ssh that has qemu.
I suppose i'm doing this with -nographic
kind of like qemu-system-x86_64 -serial stdio 9front.img -boot d
9front-xxxx-i386.iso -m 1024
With pipes such as /tmp/guest.in /tmp/guest.out
I'm receiving data.
Booting from DVD/CD... *e820 ..... ... ... cdboot=yes
mouseport=ask monitor=ask vgasize=ask bootfile=/386/9pc
But it stops at that last line and nothing. Any thoughts or
recommendations? Is it possible? Or do I have to build the image
local then copy the 9front.img to remote system. I worry that I will
run into same situation where it gets stuck.

Interrupt the boot loader by pressing space while it's printing
its stuff, then type 'console=0' followed by 'boot'. That will
point /dev/console at the virtual serial device so you can see
what's going on.
Once you've installed, add the console=0 line to plan9.ini.

that should'v been done already by the installer, see:
/rc/bin/inst/bootsetup:
if(! test -f /tmp/plan9.ini) {
@{
echo 'bootfile='^$bootfile
echo 'bootargs=local!'^$fs' '$"fsflags
if(~ $#nvram 1)
echo 'nvram='^$nvram
echo 'mouseport='^$mouseport
echo 'monitor='^$monitor
echo 'vgasize='^$vgasize
cd '#ec'
for(i in *){
echo -n $"i'='
cat $i
echo
} | grep -v '(apm0|e820|bootfile|bootargs|bootscreen|nvram|mouseport|monitor|vgasize|cdboot)'
} >/tmp/plan9.ini
}
