about 8 years ago I have seen a install process of windows 95 that needed more than 8 hours to complete on a pentium 166 with debian and bochs. So I expect bochs to be at least 10 times slower than the "bare hardware". This is not suprising, since bochs is portable along architectures and emulates everything in software. If you use etch on i386 or amd64, a better choice would be virtualbox from backports.org (or qemu if your architecture is not i386 or amd64) -- Chi usa software non libero avvelena anche te.
