Thanks for your offer!  Bochs documentation certainly needs some help.  I
think the idea of a howto for Bochs is a good one, but it seems like the
first priority should be to update the existing bochs documentation.  
Howtos are usually in addition to the basic setup and install
instructions.  I have done only minor updates to docs-html since the
3/25/2000 version, but I know there are some really old references there.  
Someone asked me recently, "Does redhat 7 work? The docs only talk about
Redhat 5.0."  :)

So IMHO this would be a better use of time right now than a new document.

All of these are great reasons to have a HOWTO.
Would you be interested working on the HTML docs first?

Thanks,
Bryce
