I've briefly looked at the qemu project before, but didn't actually
have the time to play with it. From what it looked like, it seems that
it's also possible to run qemu from the text console, even without the
xv hack in /etc/inittab I mentioned before.

Also, how responsive is qemu? I've run bochs before, and found it was
so slow as to be impractical to use in most scenarios, and this is on
a 1.1GHz celeron system.
