The nice thing about it is you can 'edit' the CPU and have it print out what it's doing for hard-to-debug stuff. Just put your CD in your /dev/cdrom drive, then put these lines in .bochsrc ata0-slave: type=cdrom, path=/dev/cdrom, status=inserted boot: cdrom Or you could put the image in a file and use that filename instead of /dev/cdrom Mike -----------------------------131390817619945514032107252833 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="send_att1"; filename="" Content-Type: application/octet-stream -----------------------------131390817619945514032107252833
