I did the download and it works great in Win32 QEMU!  Even the internet 
connection worked perfect right off the bat.  I didn't try Telnet but as 
Links worked great I suspect Telnet and probably FTP (or other program) would 
work as well.  Great job making up this .img file.  No problems configuring 
QEMU or anything...
