The file /etc/ttys contains information about where it does this, e.g. on serial ports (ttyu*) or virtual terminals (ttyv*). Your qemu probably has some virtual serial port you can connect to from the host OS. Or you should enable getty on the console or virtual terminal. NB: my amd64 machine has another default /etc/ttys than my arm machine. Ronald.
