Win98 SE 4.10.2222 A
256MB Ram
20GB Free Space
2.6Ghz Celeron
NVIDA GeForce FX 5500

DSL is running BEAUTIFUL on my system. (both JWM and FluxBox flavors)

I'm looking into using DSL as an emulator for Linux on Windows.
I'm trying to figure out how to run the 95MB program "Second Life" using DsL. (total file's sizes = 95MB, BIN size = 38.1MB)

of course, i can't load all 95 into a virtual drive and still have the ram available to run it.

i don't have an available CD burner to burn an ISO and boot it.

I'm open for suggestions on how to mount my FAT32 directory so it can be accessed in DsL or for how to copy the program over (it is a cut-paste install)

to download Second Life to explore options your self, go to:

(not win98 compatable, thus why i'm looking at emulation options)

Thanks in advance.

That link is blocked by my proxy, so I can't check. But, what's the problem with Qemu?

Huh? So what are you trying to run the linux version or the windows version? Also do you have a swap partion? It acts as extra memory and will give as much room as you need depending on how big your swap is. The linux installer is only 33.5mb.
