According to QEMU manual:
Older options like `-hda` are essentially macros which expand into
`-drive` options for various drive interfaces. The original forms

Use ``-kernel`` to provide the Linux kernel image and ``-append`` to
give the kernel command line arguments. The ``-initrd`` option can be

Use Ctrl-a c to switch between the serial console and the monitor (see
