Release notes mention Thinkpad X201.Muen website makes me cautious but if
Qemu works then we are good for a start. Have your tried virtualbox?

So bochs is not mandatory.

Well anything is easily possible with micro-kernel architecture in concept
but I was curious whether we run base_hw kernel that is muen according to
mainline repo's files.
The diagram from release notes depict base_hw kernel on Muen SK. It still
does not make sense to me. I will have to look later as I am working on
some basic presentation on Muen and genode for some prospects.
