It works again, but not out of the box

It seems the kvm-pxe package install the rom in the wrong directory :

/usr/share/kvm and qemu-kvm seems to search rom images in /usr/share/qemu

I copied /usr/share/kvm/pxe-e1000.bin to /usr/share/qemu/pxe-e1000.bin

After that, I have another error message at boot:

Searching for server (DHCP)....No IP address

I remember I had the same problem with karmic. I have generated a new gpxe rom and it works again.

So it seems there is 2 problems (but not new):
1. kvm-pxe package install rom images in a wrong directory
2. rom for e1000 packaged in kvm-pxe is buggy
