I think I volunteered to give a presentation on April 14.
Topic is "Using Qemu, an open-source hardware emulator"
Expanded: Qemu is a fast processor emulator using dynamic translation
to achieve good speed. Running on x86 hardware, it can simulate a
complete PC system including CPU, VGA card, mouse, keyboard, two IDE
channels, floppy disk, network adapter, etc.
I have run the following in Qemu emulation: Knoppix of various kinds,
Windows98SE, DamnSmall Linux, minimum freeBSD, freeDOS.
Qemu is really useful for checking out remastered Knoppix images
without actually burning them to CD and rebooting the system.
Trying to install varieties of Windows that use BIOS calls that are
not handled by the emulated BIOS is very frustrating.
