Group membership is OK.  

If I am not permitted to read the floppy, the drive motor 
shouldn't twitch immediately after the qemu command. 
Therefore I conclude that permissions aren't blocking access.
 
As mentioned originally, the machine will cold boot from 
the diskette.  More detail from qemu would help but there 
is no -v option to increase verbosity.  The man page has 
no mention of a log file.

Thanks for the feedback,           ... Peter E.
