Ooh, this implies that qemu-system-alpha actually works these days: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-07/msg01356.html (I built alpha images way way back, but dropped it because qemu only did application emulation, not the ring 0 stuff. Here's hoping it's _not_ nommu, because I never did bother with that...) Rob
