Run Merlin Firmware in Virtual Machine on PC?

[HarryMuscle]

I was wondering, is it possible to run the Merlin firmware in a virtual machine on a PC? Obviously the VM would have to emulate the Broadcom CPUs, etc. This would be for experimentation purposes purely. Has anyone ever looked into doing something like that?

Thanks,
Harry

How to install Merlin on a virtual host and using it as a soft router?

There are quiet a lot soft router OSes like openwrt and koolshare that could be installed on a virtual host or x86-x64 machine, I wonder if Merlin could be capable of that?
