-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi Zachary. Have you tried booting anything virtually using Qemu under Linux? The last time I tried this by booting the test image I got no output, since Qemu was using SDL. I'm wondering if this is still the case if I were to say, try and boot an OpenBSD iso or something.
