Thanks to bestmmk3/flyingharuka for the PC9821CX2 ide/pci bios, and to OBattler for the patched PC9821 itf!
(oh, and to TC1995 for testing)

These roms will let you fully access hd etc in qemu-9821!

Get them here: http://mir.cr/VN3DLNCE

Remove the roms you *were* using then extract the rar to your qemu-9821 folder.

The only bug i noticed was that about half the time, the keyboard doesn't work. Don't know if that happens for everyone or just me though.

when you can get the other things so easily?

Emulator from takeda-san's site.

Floppy image.. just convert fdi to img using vfic.

Run.bat? use a command line like
Code:
qemu -M pc98 -fda "floppy.img" -hda "hda.img" -cdrom "cd.iso" -no-kqemu -boot a -m 32 -L "."

Nice release!

Bootable Harddisk image (40MB) with MS-DOS 6.20 + CD-ROM driver.

Btw, tested a bunch of OS on qemu pc98:

Windows 98 & 98SE work fine.
Windows 95 RTM freezes at first boot.
Windows 95 Asian Beta 3 (4.00.720) bluescreens at first boot.
NT 3.51 freezes when loading kernel.
NT 4.0 errors when loading kernel.
Windows 2000 crashes the entire emulator (without even a stackdump!) when loading kernel.

Haven't tested 95OSR2, or win 2.x/3.x yet.

Windows 98 & se also cannot work fine ,

it hang-on from the installation on Windows 98 about "Set the time zone" step before installation completed.

basically this is not a good version.

i'm guessing for ITF relevant.

there are some difference between both CANBE Series and normalized PC-9821(bootup screen, ITF resource , CMOS SRAM address....etc)

but it's a realgood find ,

at least the emulator can try to access the HDimages.
