I'd do that the same way (and Windows licences are no problem at all with
a MSDN-AA subscription), but I want a headless system running UNIX/Linux
with NFS mounted filesystems which would contain the image files. Or even
a DOS system (optionally with Netware mounts from a Linux server). The
headless system could then be a small mini tower stuffed into some free
space of the HP rack or into the raised floor, and which will only be
powered up along with the main system.
The 1000 OS (RTE) isn't quite so picky, so a
shared system might work OK.
RTE-6/VM and HP-UX would be the systems I'd like to use the emulator for.
