getting Windows 2000 to install in QEMU took some trial and error, we eventually landed on this:
dd if=/dev/zero of=hda.img bs=$((1024*1024)) count=2048
qemu-system-i386 -drive file=hda.img,format=raw -cdrom win2k.iso -cpu 486 -m 128 -machine acpi=off -nic none

and then once the install had completed (after first boot, seeing the welcome screen and so on) we could have nice things: qemu-system-i386 -drive file=hda.img,format=raw -m 128 -nic none -vga cirrus -audio pipewire,model=ac97
