Host and guest were Linux... I just installed from the debian installer
cd into a 1GB file on my disk.
My brother uses it with guest-win2k and it works quite good also, also
with debian as host.

Performance was about 5-10 times (if not more) worse than what I
experienced on windoze :-( I have never tried it again since then,
but certainly will do so once again.
Performance on my Slackware 10 Stable is very good, although Slack is
none of the supported distros. However I
tried out QEMU on Linux, and this rocks! Performance felt
much much better, nearly as good as VMWare running on windowse, and
best is that it runs in userspace, and it's open-source:

What was your host system for QEMU? Which guest system did you use? -pu
