Hello,

No it won't boot off your normal = HD. If you create a new virtual machine inside VirtualBox, and follow the = wizard, this would be the easiest way to create one - just don't skip the hard drive = step. It's fairly simple, but =A0as I've stated before, I cannot explain it = any better than the manual.

Good = Luck.

Hi Matt

I booted FreeDOS on VirtualBOX from a CD = .... then, as I couldn't access the Virtual Hard Drive with typing C: [Enter], I = copied the folder that contains my game to the boot CD ; it booted but at = entering DIR my data folder didn=B4t appear (at My PC Windows Explorer it = did)

So I supose I'll have to access the VHD = .... cos perhaps the boot disk can't store other data than the system .... if = it was fisically there and wasn=A1t even visible .... =

It has to be something in the configuration = .... you know about this, Matt?

thank you

Pablo

Now I've read it entirely. Rod, it isn't for you to get so anoyed = with
DJGPP, it will never be dead ..... neither the DOS system .... I hope = some
day you (all members) can run my game and see what I could do with = DJGPP in
a relatively easy way .... can you imagine the mess it would be to = write a
game with other languages??? or to edit graphics??? with DJGPP I made = my own
graphics editor ...
//// I know that perhaps Mr DJ Delorie's way to say things isn't the = best,
but it's his way, ... I don=B4t disbelieve of his good intention = neither
anyone else

I have just got 2 ideas: 1st I could give my code files to the list so = the
ones who want could learn to write games (like Mario) though my = code is
quite untidy ....
2nd perhaps you, Rugxulo, could upload somewhere my Mario game, so = everyone
can see it, for though it is running from Windows XP (without music) = but I
think it would be good that djgpp people knows it .... modestly I = think it's
good, mainly it took me 2 or 3 years working a few hours some = days .... then
probably all members will be happier to help me with VBox

I wish those who are altered succed in calming down, and return to = normal
way
thank you
Pablo
