I have never tied openbsd, but I have run NetBsd and Plan9(4th edition)
under Qemu .8.0 with kqemu in windows. You may have to not use kqemu to
install, i seem to remember doing that. Once installed though it works
fine. Also I had to turn hyperthreading off. I have a P4 with 1gb of
ram. I had allocated 128 for plan 9 and 256 for netbsd. I also remeber
not having alot of luck running Plan 9 from the CD, even on a real PC.
It may be a freebsd thing.
Bob
