DOS emulation

Is there any way to emulate a 386 cpu in dos on pocket pc. I have tried pocket dos but that only does Intel 80188/80186.

I really want to play beneath a steel sky on my pda. Can anyone help

There is an emulator called Bochs out there that does 286,386,486, (and I think) some pentium emulation. It is too powerful to run decently on a pocket pc. However, some guy did port it to his ipaq. I don't have an exact link -- but search for "pocket bochs" or "ipaq bochs" and you should find something.

It says in their FAQ that external screen rotation programs are not supported, but their built-in drivers can be used by typing SCREEN ROTATE at the command prompt. Any clue if this works with Axim? I know some other progs with built-in landscape haven't worked for me.

I don't know -- but I do know that Pocketdos doesn't support 286,386,486,or pentium. It also doesn't support EGA graphics, and VGA for the most part. Only CGA/MCGA.
