Hi Jake
ftp://www.emulators.com/fusion/  Fusion has been around before
shape shifter changed its name to Basilisk. It will run on a 486
and will provide ethernet. You need dos though. Fusion can be
made to boot up There is bugger all support for the program.
Vmac will run on dos it will also boot, is well supported.
The list of other older platform emulators that will run on dos
is quite large and more OT so I wont go on.
You can get linux on it but I doubt its worth your time unless you
have a task in mind EG: firewall server.
