[PLUG] Anyone using QEMU?

[Greg Helledy <gregsonh@gra-inc.com>]

I've read about QEMU (http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/)  on Slashdot 
and wanted to try to use it so that I can run linux simultaneously with 
Windows (2000 Server) here at work.

I downloaded and installed the current windows binary from here:
http://www.freeoszoo.org/download.php
along with their linux.img image file.

However, when I follow the directions and run "qemu linux.img" I just 
get another console window for a tiny fraction of a second (much too 
fast to read anything), then nothing.  I've also tried downloading the 
latest knoppix .iso and using that as the boot image, with the same result.

Anyone using QEMU successfully with windows as the host OS?
