======================

Thank you for acquiring a copy of BOCHS.  I hope you enjoy it.

There are two components which make up BOCHS.  The first is the Intel
80x86 emulation code in the top-level directory, with related files
in other subdirectories, and is shareware for PERSONAL USE only.

The second is the IODEV (Input Output DEVices) component,
which is covered by the by its own license, the Gnu Publice License (GPL)
and is totally contained in the "iodev" directory.
Please read the file bochs-MMDDYY/iodev/LICENSE for more information on
licensing for the IODEV component.  NOTE that you must comply with the
GPL and any other licensing constraints in the bochs-MMDDYY/iodev/LICENSE
file with regards to anything within the iodev subdirectory.
Everything else is covered by the remainder of this document.

Before reading on, let me first point out that any fixes & enhancements
to any files within this distribution will be considered a donation
unless otherwise stated by their respective author.

BOCHS is shareware for PERSONAL USE only.  You may use BOCHS for your own
amusement, and if you find it nifty, useful, generally cool, or of
some value to you, your non-deductable donation would be greatly
appreciated.  $25 is the suggested donation, though, of course,
larger donations are quite welcome.

Commercial, government, and institutional users MUST register their
copies of BOCHS, for the exceedingly REASONABLE price of just $25 per
workstation/X terminal.  Site licenses are available for those who
wish to run BOCHS on a large number of machines.  Contact the author
for more details.

U.S. Funds only, please.  Checks should be made payable to 'Kevin Lawton'.
