hi,
i want to load my kernel from cdrom in bochs. for this i want to write grub to cdrom and from there load my kernel at runtime. so what can i make my cd bootable (grub). so everytime i compile my kernel with new features i will just have to write my new kernel file to cdrom, keeping everything else intact.
apart from this, how does bochs support x86-64? Can it fully emulate AMD64? how much work is still remaining? can i boot live linux x86-64 from bochs?
lastly i have amd athlon 1400+ processor. what will be the approximate IPS for it?

I can't speak for bochs, but qemu supports x86-64 (http://www.qemu.org/status.html). I haven't actually tried out its support yet.

As per GRUB on CDROM... a simply google search for 'grub on cdrom' yeilding the following (first!) link: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-g ... 00052.html umong several others...
