Actually, I found the problem (a bit of debug code I left behind) and QEMU is now working well :) . I only just subscribed to the list so ... I haven't seen your patches yet... Ho hum... duplication of effort I think... I even put in code to use the if_tap interface, but so far it's untested. Does the version in CVS offer much more than the 0.5.5 I downloaded and built from? And one of the things I am interested in doing is having a working OS/2 on my P4 laptop (OS/2 doesn't install on it) and maybe booting the XP partition from FreeBSD. > > The system compiler (GCC 2.95) does not understand many of the > > constructs used in the source. > > I don't believe QEMU can be compiled with GCC 2.x at all.

Well - I have most of it compiling on FreeBSD 4.9 already... but I'm going to try with gcc33 on 4 soon (as soon as the gcc33 port finishes building maybe) Thanks anyways -- Antony T Curtis
