As it turns out, current Bochs can run Vista and since we depend on the Bochs BIOS for ADLO, updating the codebase could result in a working Vista. See http://marc.info/?l=bochs-dev&m=118650789913052&w=2 for the success message.
We are using one of the newest versions of bochs bios and it does work ...
The 16bit or the 32bit version of the BIOS? Can you check if the current Bochs code still works with W2k/WXP? If the current code still works, please send a patch updating the code to the list and commit after an Ack.
sometimes. For some reason it works 1 out of 10 times. Most of the times It shows a blue screen related to ACPI or PAGE_FAULT. Yesterday I almost finished installing vista on a disk image but it displayed a message saying it couldn't set my locale and canceled the installation, can you believe that?
Heh. That is pure excellence by Microsoft...
I'll email Stanislav to fins out if he faced the same problems.
AFAIK Stanislas ran Vista on Bochs, not on Qemu with a Bochs BIOS.
