You can at least debug the windows kernel using IDA+GDB (if you enable the GDB debugging interface in VMWare, for instance). I haven't tried the same for Linux or QEMU, but I think it should work. You can even set the resp. options to debug real mode code in the debugger specific settings of the GDB module.
This might help:
