It's perfectly feasible to run 9front on QEMU/NVMM. To boot the .iso
install media in graphical mode, with mouse support, and proceed to
install 9front on a previously created qcow2 raw disk: 


$ qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu qemu64 -smp cpus=2 -accel nvmm -m 4G \
    -net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=52:54:00:00:EE:03 -net user \
    -display sdl,gl=on -vga std \
    -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi \
    -drive if=none,id=vd0,file=$HOME/VM/9front.qcow2.img,media=disk,cache=writeback \
    -device scsi-hd,drive=vd0 \
    -usb -device usb-mouse,bus=usb-bus.0 \
    -drive if=none,id=vd1,file=$HOME/VM/ISO/9front-10931.amd64.iso,media=cdrom \
    -device scsi-cd,drive=vd1,bootindex=0

CPU and memory settings may be adjusted depending on the host.
