Sorry, haven´t the files here till now.
But maybe you could try something like that:
qemu -floppy zetaboot.img -cdrom zetacd.img -boot a
If I get the live cd the next days I´ll try with it myself.

I noticed the official distribution already has the two tracks split into zetaboot.img and zetacd.img, so that's less work me :)

I ran

$ qemu -cdrom zetaboot.img -hda zetacd.img -boot d

and selected the hd from the boot menu. That led to a kernel panic (PANIC: boot device not found").

I then tried running without any hd, and instead changed the disk to zetacd.img from the console when the prompt for the CD came up. That way I got to the magnifying glass stage of the ZETA boot screen, but there it panics with "PANIC: no shell!". Any ideas?

Thanks for your reply,
Ulf

    Hi,

    this behaviour is because of the way a BeOS/ZETA cd is
    constructed. For
    some more infos take a look at the bottom of this page:

    What you could do:
    - Make a boot floppy out of track one of your demo-cd.
    - Extract the second track as iso (be sure to take only the second
    track)
    - In qEmu boot from your virtual floppy, press `space` to access the
    bootmenu and select your virtual hd.
    This way I get a complete ZETA installed in qEmu. But don´t expect to
    much, as most hardware is currently not supported (the last time i
    tried)
