Dunno, doubt it, esp. if it's not just standard stuff and needs special code. IIRC, most people use Crynwr's NE2000 there. (quoting old email from Erwin): " qemu -L . -m 64 -hda freedos.img -boot c -hdb fat:c:\fat -net nic,model=ne2k_pci -net user " BTW, what host OS are you planning to use QEMU? IIRC, most development is targeted towards Linux. But our own Bernd often tries to use it atop Windows. The latest Win32 (unofficial) build I can find (1.1.1-1) is here, though I haven't tested it: http://virtuallyfun.superglobalmegacorp.com/ > • I've seen mentions of XFS — a (free software?)
