1. I really do not think it is a good idea to boot two instances of qemu using the same hard disk 2. After you boot the second system (preferably by making a copy of the disk image), try running "ip/ipconfig" and "ndb/dns -r" just for kicks and giggles. Oh, and put an ip= field into your /lib/ndb/local, in this case I think you might need it. And then if that doesn't work, just use drawterm the way the site recommends. It'll also make your qemu CPU server run faster. John
