See Debian bug#504049, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504049 and discussion on qemu-devel with Kevin Wolf, http://marc.info/?t=126850802800001 for details. There's a workaround for this bug: when using full path for fat:/dir/name it works. Can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU? If so, could you please provide a proper command line that triggers this problem? [Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
