Hi,

It's probably not what you are used to. Under DOS in virtual box you
probably do not have access to your actual hard drive. While there is a
shared folder system, it dos not work under DOS. I think the easiest way =
is
to make a ISO of the data you want, and mount that under virtual box as =
a
CD, then copy it to your VHD.=20

Hope that helped,
Matt

I downloaded FreeDOS and booted my virtual machine (VirtualBOX) from a =
CD
then appeared this
=A0
X:\
=A0
I chose to boot and run from the CD in VirtualBOX boot options
=A0
My problem now is I can`t access drive C: and the order MOUNT doesn't =
exist
as in DOSBox
I typed DIR and system displayed the CD contents
=A0
Can someone tell me how is the directory handling on VirtualBOX?
thanks

MS Dos 6.22 is not freely available from MS - unless this has changed
recently. To make it worse I don't even think you can buy it anymore. =
You
can try Dr. Dos, or Free DOS. I have had issues with them in the past, =
but
they work for many apps.=20

Good Luck on the DOS hunt!
Matt

You need to first of all -=A0 acquire a copy of the OS you wish to use. =
Then I
would recommend reading the documentation for virtualbox. It emulates an
actual X86 pc, and you need to configure it with a virtual hard drive =
and
other virtual hardware. There is usually a PDF manual installed with
VirtualBox. Then you would need to actually install the OS, and =
configure it
much like it was an actual PC. This may seem like a pain, but the =
learning
curve for VirtualBox is less than other options.

Hello Rod, Rugxulo, and other members of the list
=A0
As you told me, I downloaded and tried to use VirtualBox because DOSBox =
is
very slow for my DJGPP videogame program
=A0
the matter now is that I have no lowest idea of how to use it, .... the
tipical MS-DOS screen that used to appear with DOSBox brights absent, =
and a
dialog box tells me to create a new virtual machine
=A0
I remind those who don=B4t know, that I learnt through Rugxulo that I =
should
run my game under DOSBox or another emulator in order to the music =
sounds
correctly cos under Windows it sounded wrong
=A0
can someone help me and teach me how to run my game with this?
thank you
=A0
