It might be because my windows 98 disk is messed up or something??
I have 2 windows 98 disks. I have a ISO one i got from the internet and i have another regular one that i bought from the store a while back.
I poped both of them suckers inside the ps3 and typed the comands they told me to type but this is what i always get:

Nothing to do
Then i followed this:
Now insert the windows disk into the drive
Before we actually run qemu we need to make a hard drive image for windows. This will be the "drive c" for windows. To do that open a terminal then type...
"qemu-img create -f win98.img 1500M"
Wrote it and got this:
[root@localhost n0valine]# qemu-img create -f win98.img 1500M
qemu-img version 0.8.2, Copyright (c) 2004-2005 Fabrice Bellard
usage: qemu-img command [command options]
QEMU disk image utility
Command syntax:
create [-e] [-b base_image] [-f fmt] filename [size]
commit [-f fmt] filename
convert [-c] [-e] [-f fmt] filename [-O output_fmt] output_filename
info [-f fmt] filename
Command parameters:
'filename' is a disk image filename
'base_image' is the read-only disk image which is used as base for a copy on
write image; the copy on write image only stores the modified data
'fmt' is the disk image format. It is guessed automatically in most cases
'size' is the disk image size in kilobytes. Optional suffixes 'M' (megabyte)
and 'G' (gigabyte) are supported
'output_filename' is the destination disk image filename
'output_fmt' is the destination format
'-c' indicates that target image must be compressed (qcow format only)
'-e' indicates that the target image must be encrypted (qcow format only)
Supported format: vvfat vpc bochs dmg cloop vmdk qcow cow raw
Finally i tried the last thing:
To start qemu so that we can install windows 98 type the following in the terminal
"qemu -cdrom /dev/scd0 -boot d win98.img"
And got this:
[root@localhost n0valine]# qemu -cdrom /dev/scd0 -boot d win98.img
qemu: could not open hard disk image 'win98.img'
PLZ need help!!
sorry if its so long =(
