This is wrong IMHO. win98 and winNT can run on various different machines, including all modern ones (yes I tried the same winNT on my Athlon X2-64, just had to switch SATA from AHCI to IDE; win95 works too)... just not in kvm :) >> BTW: Does anyone knows what the problem with Windows95/98 on KVM is? I >> tried some tracing today, but couldn't find a hint. Um. The bugreport(s) come as a surprize for me: I tried to install win98 in kvm several times in the past but setup always failed - different messages in different versions of kvm, either "unable to emulate" or "real mode trap" or something else, or just lockup, usually on first reboot. So - the bugreports talks about mouse non-working, but this means win98 itself works somehow... I dunno :) /mjt
