I found bochs to be exceedingly difficult to use compared to other

are high you can probably get it done easier in wine instead of wasting space
on a whole windows install.
Thanks for pointing me towards VirtualBox-OSE! It works
great! I think it is going to eliminate a big Win2k
machine by turning it into a Linux/Debian system with
VirtualBox running a few programs that don't have a
linux equivalent.
Still don't find wine really usable. So far can't
adjust the resolution and for some reason some programs
just won't install. Well, they install, but won't run
afterward. FileZilla from Windows seems to work good
though. That was my first trial.
Thanks for the help!
