My hard disc is of 5Mb size, created with "bximage" from the Bochs project.

"bximage" creates virtual discs much faster than the dd utility (which loos=
es=20
time writing zeros to disc). If Bochs is installed, just enter "bximage" in=
 a=20
shell and answer questions.

By the way, about the display issue: I just removed the display card in res=
cue=20
mode. After rebooting Windows, I could display in 800x600 VBE mode.

The only remaining visible issue, at user-level, seems to be the mouse,
which is toooo slow for using Windows in normal mode.

Windows 2k seems to run pretty quickly on my Pentimum IV 1,8 Ghz.
At a first sight, I would say it performs like a Pentium III 600 Mhz.

Very usable... Qemu rocks my friends.
