I have the need to run the ancient OS/2 system once or twice a year due to business obligations and for that purpose I have such a system installed. It would be nice to have a virtual machine for that purpose but I haven't been able to find one which would do the job. VMware specifically states that they do not support it and VirtualBox (Innotek) requires cpus with AMD-V or similar support.

Xen and KVM should both do it, with HV. Apparently the others play funny bees with the object code.
Thanks, I'll take a look at them.

Microsoft's Virtual PC allows one to choose an OS/2 profile, much to my astonishment. Of course, that might mean Microsoft OS/2.


This is really strange. Microsoft purchased its Virtual PC from Innotek and that version was capable of running OS/2 as guest without requiring AMD-V. Now Innotek is back in business with a new virtual PC program which requires AMD-V!
