Ok that seems to be a little better, but if I use the command in the
"SerialICE Qemu
README" I just get this:

[root at smitty2 qemu-0.11.0]# ./i386-softmmu/qemu -M -serialice /dev/ttyS0
-hda /dev/zero -L ./bios
Supported machines are:
pc         Standard PC (alias of pc-0.11)
pc-0.11    Standard PC (default)
pc-0.10    Standard PC, qemu 0.10
isapc      ISA-only PC

If I use the older command listed on the website it seems to get a little
further:

[root at smitty2 qemu-0.11.0]# ./i386-softmmu/qemu -serialice /dev/ttyS0 -hda
/dev/zero -L ./bios
