WineX (& DOSEMU and everything in between)
« Reply #15 on: 22 November 2002, 01:46 »
Hmmm I read it closer and I was wrong, it does emulate SB. Does DosEmu have any special things though? Such as detecting my card in linux and automatically setting up the config.sys or autoexec.bat for example? Another nice feature would be a conventional memory faker, where it "emulates" having 640K conventional memory free, lol that would fucking rock!  :D

Yep. I've managed to get bochs to run (a) MS-DOS5 with Windows 3.1, (b) Windows 95 - though it's even more crashy than usual, and (c) Debian 1.3.1r8. Quite impressive, and it's improving all the time. Only bad thing about it is that it's a bit slow because it emulates everything, including the processor - no native execution of code as in VMware.

Slowness is not a concern!
