I'm not doing anything that special

for the most part the Xp pe boot thing just goes blank... I never really tried it on qemu before, and Id guess people were using kvm so they'd never notice.
Although I'd just waste time trying to build DooM or Quake on them. :|
Friday will be here soon enough!
Noteapd is my "IDE" and I really dislike the uwp thing, so I do my best to avoid it.
I don't know how you can scew up repeat search/replace, but MSFT found a way.
I'm just happy to still have the board.

Either way it's nice to have a differencing disk image that won't get destroyed, and a couple seconds from execution to login prompt.
Now the real question is, should I even try to building something with it?
While the GMA900 never set the world on fire, in terms of OpenGL performance, it's enough for simple stuff like ssystem.
But then again, I'm the madman that wired up the turbo button so when it was engaged/lit the CPU ran at maximum speed. Apparently Turbo means slow mode.
I guess its why building mach wasn't so scarry.
It took a while but eventually I did get a 9600 baud 'field upgradable/dsp' modem that sometimes could 14.4 but it mostly did 9600 which I was still amazed with. It's also back when people would meet in person to swap disks, and then eventually I'd help other people install Linux into those linux install parites. And OS/2 as well, well before NT 3.5
I used to get booted from all the local BBS's as I was too slow, but I was so thrilled to step up from 1200 baud.
I mirrored it and fixed the pathing issues so it works again: https://virtuallyfun.com/pdp11/
I thought it was pretty cool though, shame to leave it broken.
