Thats interesting. Did the 0.0.82 stable version boot ok ? Obviously the Dev
version is just that a development version. But I thought it was booting
when I put it up.

I have never tried Bochs. Perhaps I had better have a look into that as a
test platform too.

I'll be putting my close of play version up there today so check it out
later.

Many Thanks

Neil

I tried the images in the Dev directory - but couldn't get it to boot
correctly...

Since I don't have a spare machine, I've tried loading it in Bochs 1.4 ...
