I had problems with this too.  The bochs package in Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty
Fawn) is missing a couple of things.  I'll start from scratch on how to
install it.  You must have the universe repository enabled.

1. sudo apt-get install bochs bochs-x bochs-sdl bochs-svga bochsbios bximage 
vgabios
2. Download the following file...  
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/vgabios/vgabios/VGABIOS-lgpl-latest.bin?rev=HEAD
3. Save the file as "/usr/share/bochs/VGABIOS-lgpl-latest".  Notice I removed 
the .bin part.
4. Download and test a disk image from 
http://bochs.sourceforge.net/diskimages.html
5. cd into the images directory and run "bochs".  Everything should work.

Note: Depending on your system and the disk image you download, you may
need to adjust your IPS and VGA_UPDATE_INTERVAL or it will lag to death.
See the Bochs documentation for more information at
