Are you really supplying qemu image? What does:

	file wheezy-armhf.img

say? It should be something like this:

radek at rp-core:~/qte/qtmoko-buildhost-apps$ file wheezy-armhf.img 
wheezy-armhf.img: QEMU QCOW Image (v2), 34359738368 bytes

vexpress kernel has no support for ATA/SATA - instead of this it uses SD card 
emulation.

I have created it with qemu utility for creating virtual machine disks - 
something like qcow... Dunno exactly the commands, but it it's very easy to 
google them up.
