bochs 2.1.1 will die while installing wini98se. There is a work around to this listing in bochs bug 891633.

During the win98se install, bochs reports:

1. Install Win98se in bochs
2. During Device Database building and detection, Win98se BSOD or bochs will outright die.

Actual Results:  
Bochs dies.
