Hi,

   I just installed WinNT 3.51 & 4.0 WKS to a PREP machine(Power Series 
Thinkpad). The first thing I had to do was installing ARC disk image to 
PREP 0x41 partition on HD. This Arc utility is then used for 
partitioning HD(Winnt PPC cant do this). And Winnt setup has to be 
launched from ARC menu too(run external program CD:\PPC\SETUPLDR). After 
installation ARC is also used to boot osloader.exe from a FAT partition 
of disk to run WinNT so on my opinion WinNT cannot be booted or 
installed before this ARC utility works under Qemu. You can Download 
this ARC image from ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/powerpc/arc151.dd
Before booting this image under Qemu one should modify bootinfos.c from 
OHW to report machine model ie. IBM PPS Model 6050 instead of QEMU PPC. 
This image booting crashes shortly after going to Little-endian mode 
with followin: Invalid/unsupported opcode 00 - 10 - 01.
