- Observing boot failure of qemuarm64 with error message:
'root=/dev/vda': No such file or directory
- Fix syntax for providing -append arguments with qemu-system-* command
- The -append arguments must be enclosed in quotes
- Use eval to execute qemu-system-* command
- Fix consistency with use of spaces instead of tabs
