Can we boot from CD-ROM ISO for QEMU MIPS systems?

Obviously this method works for x86_64 and i386, probably because they have
bios.

I tried the obvious combinations on MIPS with no luck so far

   - add "-boot d" option; and
   - also supply the kernel/initrd in the hope they might recognize "-boot
   d" and read from CD-ROM

Just want to check to see if I'm heading to a dead wall or not.

Cheers.
