For reference, here are the last few lines:

That's interesting. From the whole output you posted in the pastebin, it 
looks as if the IDE control register is located at 0x682 and various 
bits of data are written between 0x600 and 0x607.

However, then something does terribly wrong mid-request and the write 
addresses change to 0x500-0x507 with a control register at 0x582, then 
0x600-0x607 with a control register at 0x582 and then 0x700-0x707 with a 
  control register of 0x682 again.

I'm current leaning towards this being a bug in Qemu...


ATB,

Mark.
