For me it also works (or at least this bug doesn't arise) in QEMU (0.9.0 "official").

BTW, why did you brew your QEMU version ? Did you fix the PS/2 emulation ?

My boot was already 98% clean. OK, deleting HIMEMX also ... no effect (same bug symptoms still present).

LOGI 6.50 -> same bug still present (+ bloat + delay on EDIT startup).

Last thing: mouse driver removed -> no bug anymore

OK ... finally got DOS into an other PC -> no bug. Problem seems to be hardware / BIOS sensitive
