Techniques: Software: Emulators: Qemu

QEMU is an open source processor emulator. It emulates a variety of different CPUs and systems, and achieves good speed by using dynamic translation.

Some Quick Notes

  • Creating the disk image:
qemu-img create win98hd.img 2G
qemu -hda win98hd.img -cdrom win98.iso -boot d

For debian-derived host systems, if you want to use the kernel make-qemu-go-fast module, you'll need to download the source from the website and compile it locally because cause there aren't packages for it in apt.

If you're wanting to run Win98 under qemu, this option is moot because make-qemu-go-fast and Win98 don't get along.
