I definitely agree :-)
Another point : if some people are really interested to get QEMU work on
MacOSX, a simpler task is to port 'vl' on MacOS X. 'vl' works currently
only on x86, but there is really no reason for it not to be portable.
'vl' has the potential of launching _any_ x86 OS on PowerPC as it
integrates now hardware level emulation for all the standard PC
components (except a sound card).
Currently Linux and Freedos can be launched. Soon, unpatched Linux
kernels, MSDOS and *bsd will run smoothly...
Fabrice.
