OS emulators?

sorry for bein a noob around here, just did the bannerbomb hack yesterday, games and emulators are running great on the wii now. My question is what exactly can you do with linux/pc emulators on the wii, I assumed maybe running firefox or something wouldn't be out of the question, if I wanted to run firefox can I do it with one of these, if so how. Secondly I noticed that Hugo loads pc roms...at first I got excited cause I thought I might be able to run some older pc games like warcraft 3 or Alice off of the disc drive. Nope, then I tried loading an older game, the original legacy of kain from a cd I had backed it up on, no luck there. So what does the PC rom format have to be? Is it for DOS games or something? Could I run LoK if it were on DVD, SD or USB? I'm just new to homebrew and overwhelmed by how cool it is, but other than the freeware stuff I wanna know what it's capable of, what cool stuff can you do with linux? And is there anywhere that's easy to find the clearwater mod for quake? I've tried certain searches but they usually bring up Creedance Clearwater, not that that's a bad thing

Ive been in the Wii Scene along time, And their isnt a PC emulator, what you speak of isn't *ATM I RECON* possible due to the hardware limitations with the Nintendo Console.
Thanks, Alex.

sorry, I thought hugo was a pc emulator, what can hugo do then?

Hugo is a PC Engine emulator (which in America is the Turbografx 16). It runs *.pce files. It can play lots of cool games. Just google for them.

I believe there is a version of DosBox for the Wii. That should be able to run some older games (but probably not the two that the OP mentioned by name). Look in the downloads section here or get the Homebrew Browser.

Linux can run on the Wii now? Amazing.
Virtual consoles ftw.

PS3, too.
