This is a qemu hard disk image, and unpacks to the same size as the one 
you got from the qemu site (10 MB).  It has ocurred to me that you could 
specify your computer's main hard drive as -hdb to qemu an so (maybe) 
access files to/from it that way.  But you'd have to have tools that aloow 
reading/writing to the ext2 filesystem.  I think the loadlin author came 
out with those.  Anyone else agree that something like this might work?
