Booted to Win98 and it ran, after a fashion. I just wish USB drivers had been included in the Win98 image. Stymied with network connectivity as well. I got academic pleasure from doing this with my Pi, but I really couldn't get it to do much. Satisfied curiosity....

I admire a lot the Linux, Raspberry Pi and other free software that makes the world a better place. i hope someday I could be able to join. Thank you very much, your effort is very appreciated!!!!

Works Great. I am yet to use the wine one. But the windows 98 one works flawlessly (at least as much as 98 can). thanks a ton! P.s. It would be great if you could make a windows xp version.

Same problem here as ok2cme has: Wine says it needs 3G/1G memory split and isn't able to run any x86 application. Seems not to work in any way on Raspberry Pi 3. There also is no TCP/IP connection present in the debian shell: "ping sourceforge.net" and a ping to any other adress always returns "unknown host".

Thank you for thinking in this brilliant idea, I'll test it and comeback with results, but be sure, regardless of the results, it is one step in the correction direction, the future is for those micro pcs.
