Hi Bill: You've already seen Cian's comment regarding QEMU and the computer you have. If you still choose to investigate moving in this direction, here's the link:
http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/ Read the documentation carefully as you will have to match QEMU to your particular environment. This means a specific version of QEMU to match with YDL 2 and another to match YDL 3, and still a different one to match YDL 3.0.1! As you learn the details regarding QEMU, perhaps you'll reconsider the effort. Good Luck... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bill Perrotta wrote: > Is there a version of qemu that'll run on yellow dog 2.1 ? > so maybe i can run win95 to run ie version with shockwave. > Also can you send me a link on how to install yellow dog 4.1 on ppc > 8500 if you have one? > > > */Norberto Quintanar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/* wrote: > > I have YDL 4 running on a 6500/250, just fine, 603e chip.
