Yes, I know this looks like a repost of http://www.zaurususergroup.com/index.php?n...iewtopic&t=3559, but that one was ONLY for those with VGA Zaurus\'s (which I\'m guessing is only about 8% of this Zaurus population.

Noone in that 8% had ever sucessfully installed Bochs on their Zaurus, so I decided to open it up to the general Zaurus public.

Has ANYONE every used, adapted, installed, gotten working, etc the Bochs (x86 emulator) on their Zaurus.  I\'ve seen pictures on the web so I suspect that at least 2 people out there have sucessfully done this.  If you haven\'t ever used Bochs on your Zaurus, have you ever used it on any other platform?  OR... have you ever been able to get any other x86 emulator working on the Zaurus?

I\'ve had x86 emulators on all of my previous PDAs... I\'m surprised that my new PDA, which is the most advanced PDA I\'ve ever owned, doesn\'t has this option.

I felt that the last post was too specific, and I hope this one appears more general.  (I hope this is acceptable.  If not... I\'m sorry  )

I\'ll look some more.  I saw lots of people mentioning it, but few people who actually have used it... and I can\'t get ahold of those people.

I\'ll keep looking, though...
