[*]Try selecting 6 e1000 NICs on the ASA. Why did you go with 2 instead of six?
Exponent - I only need 2 interfaces and it makes for a faster boot and configuration. It is exactly the same behavior with 6 interfaces.
[*]Post the output from ps aux | grep qemu. From my experience, the qemuwrapper invokes qemu in a way that doesn't work. Unless you give me some command output to work with, i cant do much.
Here is output of ps aux | grep qemu.
Code:

Exponent - Yes you are correct the qemuwrapper is indeed the problem. There is some kind of a path issue I believe. I am almost certain that the wrapper is indeed the problem.
Did you invoke qemu with the 8.4 image from the terminal and did it work?
Yes - I did invoke qemu from the terminal and it worked flawlessly.
I may pla around with the settings a bit more. Just out of curiosity have you tried 1.6.2 or 1.7.0. The reason I ask is that it takes so long to compile and setup that I am just trying to get a feel for what works and what doesn't.
