You can identify libio-based systems by checking for the libc0.3 package
(dpkg -s libc0.3).
As said before, Bochs is much slower than Vmware, and installing Debian
GNU/Hurd in Bochs could take you several days. I suggest that you take
a pre-installed image from:
http://khazad.dyndns.org/gnu/bochs
It boots and is operative, but there are some problems as described in the
PROBLEMS file. If you can fix any of these, please feedback.
btw, there's a Debian package of Bochs if you happen to use Debian GNU/Linuxa
cheers,
