Hello

Which lead to my next dumb question - the fast patch for the 2.6 kernel,
I'm assuming its to allow qemu-fast to run under linux 2.6, not for
linux 2.6 to be used as a guest under qemu-fast, the docs seemed a bit
ambigous on this.


The correct meaning is...the "qemu-fast patch" means to be applied on guest 
kernel so the guest's kernel memory layout won't introduce any conflict when 
qemu-fast is doing direct MMU operation on host

Hope it helps

Yup, thanks - I don't need to patch my host kernel to run qemu-fast then.

Should qemu-fast with with Win98 then ?

Thanks - Lindsay
