Yes I have tried that a couple of years ago using SLES8
or maybe SuSE Linux ver 7, can't remeber.
It worked, and I actually succeded in booting NT4
(Yes it was that long ago) but it was painfully slow.
Install took a couple of hours, at least half a day, and booting
into login panel about half an hour.
Totally useless!

Per bochs spec file the -bios subpackage is created only on Intelish
platforms (i386, x86_64). Can't tell now what is the exact reason, some
research will be required.
