do you know if it can be run on a QEMU-KVM VM?
i might have just popped on a way to move my system from hardware to VM if it
will run under QEMU-KVM... i have been rsyncing it to my main linux system...
if i install OS/2 into a QEMU-KVM VM and get my rsync also installed, then i
should be able to simply rsync everything out of the backup and reboot and be
off to the races... it all depends on if i can get it installed in a VM... no
clue how to do that using the HOST's floppy drive and/or CD... maybe making
images and tying them into the VM is the way to go??

wrong...
