It includes +emulation of the Intel x86 CPU, common I/O devices, and a custom +BIOS. Currently, Bochs can be compiled to emulate a 386, 486, +Pentium, Pentium Pro or x86-64 CPU, including optional MMX, +SSE/SSE2/SSE3 and 3DNow! instructions. Bochs is capable of running +most Operating Systems inside the emulation including Linux, DOS, +Windows 95/98 and Windows NT/2000/XP. + +Bochs has some dependencies for the display options: SDL, libsvga, +wxWidgets (any of three versions [GTK, Motif, X11] run very well), +but they are not necessary at all (because autodetection runs very +well). The only one really needed is Xlib. |
