[Qemu-devel] QEMU 0.5.5 and Windows 98SE

[Hetz Ben Hamo]

Hi,

I just finished recompiling 0.5.5 from CVS and tried the Win98SE from 
the MSDN CD..

Bravo, Installation works fully this time without chaing autoexec.bat or 
config.sys, and even the Network "card" is being detected...

However, no mode allows me to switch to more then 16 colours (and yes, I 
have tried to install the standard Super VGA driver)..

I have tried the SciTech Display doctor (which is a univeral graphics 
driver, available for free at ftp.scitechsoft.com and it detects the 
graphics "chip" as Winbond chip with 1MB RAM, but still, it doesn't gove 
more then 16 colors.

Anyone has any suggestion for a configuration/driver for Windows 98?

Also, how stable is SLiRP for day to day use? (browsing, email etc).. I 
plan to write a howto install Win98 a guest..

Thanks,
Hetz
