All tests were made with the current cvs version 20050426 on freeoszoo.org

1) There is still the cdrom change problem.  If you have an upgrade version of 
Windows, this can bring the installation to a dead end.  Sometimes the win 
installer even locks up when it tries to access the just changed cd image.  So 
something still isn't quite right.  (In fact, with this current cvs version, I 
wasn't able to change the cd at all.  The Win98 installer always locked every 
time.)

2) Be nice is there were scroll bars on the guest window.  Make it a lot easier 
to deal with a lot of screen sizes.  Not all of us have monitors that can 
handle larger resolutions (ie: lcd monitors) and some of us (such as myself), 
have eyesight poor enough that working in 1280x or even 1024x can be a problem.

3) Spaces in filenames are still a problem.  Such as paths to cdrom images when 
changing the cd while in the monitor screen.

4) I tried installing Win98 with the "-isa" option on qemu.  It caused XP to 
abort qemu with an error dump.  (Unfortunately I couldn't save it, so I can't 
send it in to Fabrice.)


I didn't try WinXP guest today with this version because I see Fabrice is 
posting some new patches, so I should probably wait until the next cvs build 
comes out.

Admittedly, these issues are the same ones that have been reported several 
times.  And apparently none of the developers are working on fixing these and 
the other reported problems.

But, I'm hopeful.
