Bug#261659: Package: installation-reports
Thanks for the reply.
Virtual PC doesn't do any emulating at all - except for the hard
drive which is contained in a dynamically sized file.
I was able to access the net using gentoo's liveCD 2004.1 with the
smp (2.6.5) kernel, but installing gentoo is such a long process
that i gave it up.
Thoughts?
