I will assume you have already installed [QEMU](http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/).
-You may need the [floppy.img](http://mycelium.dyndns.org/floppy.img) that I use. It is from the debian grub boot disk package.

+You will need the [debian grub boot disk package](ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/grub/grub-disk_0.95+cvs20040624-17_all.deb) for the floppy.img. The floppy boot image is called grub-0.95-i386-pc.ext2fs.gz and you can gunzip this and rename it to floppy.img if you like.
First off use `qemu-img` to create a disk image. I set mine to 2 gigabytes.
# qemu-img create hd0.img 2G

Now at his point do the regular install using `hd0` as your harddrive. Partition it and install the base system. Instead of rebooting, just stop QEMU (it'll keep booting off the cdrom).

So far I haven't been able to get networking going, it seems as if gnumach is not finding the ethernet device, although I haven't really looked into it that far.
