Hi all, Bochs 2.6 is available since 2012-09-03: http://bochs.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/bochs/tags/REL_2_6_FINAL/bochs/CHANGES You can download Linux and Windows versions and sources here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bochs/files/bochs/2.6/ Things which are still buggy can be reported here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12580&atid=112580 I think this will be interesting for USB / UDMA / ... driver users and developers as well :-) The new version improves the compatibility and speed. New PC speaker support infrastructure and faster CPU, debugger shows virtual device states, added a virtual i82540EM Gigabit-LAN chip (port from Qemu) and so on. VGA improved, for example blinking and retrace emulation, with some ideas from DOSBox. "Improved PCI boot ROM support"... Happy testing :-) Eric |

Since Eric announced Bochs in this list let me mention that I wrote a tutorial for Bochs which is helpful for setting up and using Bochs on Windows: http://peter-bochs.googlecode.com/files/Bochs%20-%20a%20Guide%20and%20Tutorial%20for%20Windows%20II.pdf It does not cover the new features listed by Eric yet.
