+The QEMU `-cdrom` option is intended to work with the original ISO-format +images, not the recently invented ISOHybrid image. + Finally, the use of `-M accel=kvm` is intended to use the native CPU's virtual-machine features to accelerate operation, but this causes U-Boot to hang when jumping 64-bit mode, at least on AMD machines. This may be a bug in U-Boot
