With your virtual disk created, load the guest operating system into it. The following example assumes that the guest operating system is on a CD-ROM. In addition to populating the virtual disk with the CD-ROM ISO image, you must boot the image when it's done.
$ kvm -no-acpi -m 384 -cdrom guestos.iso -hda vm-disk.img -boot d --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now no such command exists in 10.3A4 which leads me to wonder was the 10.3A4 kernel compiled without KVM support????
The kernel is built with kvm support.
Just the userland tools seem to be missing.

The above are the modules loaded, there is also kvm_intel for intel
CPU's - all part of the kernel. The kqemu module is from
kqemu-1.3.0pre11 from the qemu site, all the userland tools are from the
qemu package from factory.

Summary : Universal CPU emulator
Description :
QEMU is an extremely well-performing CPU emulator that allows you to
choose between simulating an entire system and running userspace
binaries for different architectures under your native operating
system. It currently emulates x86, ARM, PowerPC and SPARC CPUs as well
as PC and PowerMac systems.
