Problem
I love my VIA C3 (Nehemiah) based server, but as far as I can tell it's very hard to find a virtualization solution that works on this processor, since it doesn't support the same instruction sets as Intel/AMD processors of the time. Are there any options at all?

Low Risk
Apparently Virtualbox can. From Virtualbox tips : Q: Does Virtualbox require CPU with virtualization capabilities ? A: NO. Virtualbox can even run on VIA C3 processors (on 486 linux kernel for instance).
