I realize Linux won't boot yet.  All the errors you reported
are good signs, that Bochs is right on track.  Linux is
trying to use features which I have not yet implemented
yet.  It's a pleasure to see this, as it beats the heck
out of diagnosing bugs!!!

Anyhow, perhaps I'll work on getting Linux to boot in
the near future.
