Installing Windows 2000 on Qemu
From Computer History Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Windows 2000 install is pretty straight forward with Qemu 0.14.0. You don't need to even use that -win2k-hack thing anymore. Basically run it like this...
qemu.exe -L pc-bios -m 512 -hda win2k.disk -net nic,model=pcnet -net user -cpu pentium -cdrom windows2000-pro-server-advanced-MSDN.iso -boot d
I like to redirect the RDP protocol into the VM, I picked the arbitrary port 4444...
-redir tcp:4444::3389
And of course, not everyone requires audio..
-soundhw sb16,adlib
post install
With Windows 2000 installed, you can safely install service pack 4..
You can also now run Windows 2000 'normally' like this:
qemu -L . -hda windows2000.disk -net nic -net user -rtc-td-hack -soundhw sb16,adlib -localtime
That's about it!
