(Click for larger view of the PSP loading an alien OS -- Linux, in this case)The project described by
ExtremeTech requires a "hackable" PSP, along with a copy of
Bochs built for the PSP. The article appears to provide fairly detailed installation and configuration suggestions. While the emphasis is on Linux, much of the process would be applicable to booting a Windows 95 image created from a virtual machine using
Virtual PC or
VMWare.
According to the article, these are what you'll need:
- Hackable PSP (i.e. one that can run homebrew apps)
- Memory stick with enough space for Bochs files and virtual hard drive image (512MB or 1GB)
- Virtual PC or VMWare (free trials are available)
- Virtual DriveCreation software (free trials are available)
- Windows 95 or Windows 98
