i just wanted to know if any one has installed qemu on dsl and then run a diff os throw that. b/c i can install windows 95 and it less then 25mb and it would be kind of cool if i can run windows, b/c no matter how u look at it u can never get completely away from windows. and has any one made an .dsl for qemu.
thanks

Please use at least some punctuation and formatting of some kind!!! :angry:

Having a long, long line of lower-case characters is evil.

It hurts the old eyes. :D

AOLspreak abbrieviations are bad, too.

On topic, though, running Windoze inside Linux through an emulator?

Other than the coolness factor, and irony, of running a M$ OS inside Linux instead of the other way around, is there any practical use for this?

You can run windows as a guest OS within a host OS of Linux using Qemu.
Here are sone links:

http://www.dad-answers.com/qemu-forum/index.php

http://www.freeoszoo.org/screenshots.php

But since DSL is primarily a liveCD. I don't know how practical that would be.
Also, since the .dsl could not contain © windows os. This would have to be something that you do pretty much on your own.

But as shown in the links above, some are doing this.
