About this APK

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

lBochs is a port of the Bochs X86 emulator (http://bochs.sourceforge.net). The modified bochs sources are included as a tgz archive stored in the internal SD card ( ). I provide a floppy with freedos just to make the emulator boot after app installation. I provide also a virtual HD ready to use for OS installations. It's possible to create shortcuts for different systems (if the home launcher allows it). It's possible to set the emulator run on a specific cpu model (386/486/586/686/686X64), but the configuration must be chosen wisely or the app will crash badly. A smart way to use the app is to create the VM on PC and then copy it inside the android device. If you plan to put the virtual machines in the SD card, be aware that Android>=4.4 grants write access to the app only under
