and then,
I got two Unix OS: Debian for PPC and AIX IBM for PPC.
My computer CPU is a Intel with Host OS Windows XP.
So, I don't know how to emulate this CPU to run these OS.
This may be a silly question, but WHY are you trying to do this? AIX
only runs on PPC (unless you're running AIX v1 or v2) but Debian
certainly runs on Intel. It might be simpler to build a new VM based on
Debian for Intel - it would certainly perform a lot better than
emulating a PPC.
Now, if you were asking about emulating PPC so you could run AIX under
VMware, you might start by looking here:
