The machine I managed to get it to run on is an Intel PII 233 MHz on a Intel 
AL440LX motherboard with 384 MiB RAM.

Running it with qemu doesn't really work, even though it doesn't reboot 
immediately, it fails to read from the qemu hd image.

I've put up the hd image (gzipped), the bootable CD iso and the menu.lst file 
I've used with qemu at the same location, if you'd like to try it.

The grub.iso.gz is where the good stuff is, so you don't really need the hd 
image gnu.img.gz.  I use the iso for testing OSKit example kernels. md5sums 
are listed in the README.
