Depending on the version of qemu, the invocation has changed. This is what I
am using.

qemu-system-i386 -m 512 -boot a -cpu 486 -drive file=/home/joel/qemu/pc386_fda,index=0,if=floppy,format=raw -drive file=fat:/home/joel/qemu/hd,format=raw -monitor null -nographic -serial stdio --no-reboot

I didn't realize you could treat the .exe as a kernel so a lot of that is dealing with
booting a virtual floppy and using a directory as C:

But it does print to stdout.
