Possible problem emulating the 8259 PIC on my local machine for v86. Looking into it further. |
|
15:41
🔗
|
JohnTalen |
it's apparent the downloadable v86 and the one on the site is completely different. |
|
16:15

|
JohnTalen |
It's in the restorative process of both Windows images. Other images work fine. |

SketchCow: is there any movement on vlc.js lately? I just ripped some Quicktime Cinepak files from a NASA CD from 2001 that it'd be neat to stream without re-encoding |

Can't play them on modern Quicktime |

Those are the two big missing ones that I think are of high enough quality to use. |

JohnTalen |
okay thanks. |

18:56
🔗

SketchCow |
v86 is way more important. |

are there specific app images you wanted for both those emulators? |

are there going to be bootable win95 install or general image disks on archive.org? |
|
21:27
🔗
|
JohnTalen |
meaning, downloable images... |
|
21:32
🔗
|
db48x |
JohnTalen: in general there could be anything |
|
21:33
🔗
|
db48x |
JohnTalen: but if you take a look at https://archive.org/details/softwarelibrary_win3_showcase you'll see how we intend to set things up |
|

|
db48x |
the metadata tells the emularity to load both the current item and a specific windows 3.1 disk, mounting one as the C: drive and the other as d: |

we then run a batch file that starts windows and then the application, but that part's not really relevant to anything other than windows 3.1 |
|
21:39

|
JohnTalen |
Yes, I noticed that 2 hours ago when I tried the win95 demo disk for windows 3.1. nicely done! |

thank you :) |

yw! :) |

db48x |
for v86 it could also be a linux boot image and some linux program, or a bsd boot image plus..., etc |
|
21:42
🔗
|
db48x |
we'll even happily let people boot up the installers, even though it won't be super useful for them |
|

|
JohnTalen |
gonna have to get windows at some point. linux tools are very much lacking when it comes to optical drives, in fact it's downright hissed upon. |
|

|
db48x |
oh? what are you doing with your optical drive? |

brilliant, microsoft's windows 10 pages are severly broken. |
|
21:56
🔗
|
JohnTalen |
well, i want to make windows 95/98/(etc al.) images. need to make boot disks too. linux has mkisofs...that's about it. |
|
21:57
🔗
|
db48x |
ah |
|
21:57
🔗
|
db48x |
there are probably images you can download from archive.org |
|
21:59
🔗
|
JohnTalen |
yeah, that was my earlier question. |
|

making isos are easy. making them bootable. well. that's arcane art not tied to any search engine web pages. |

do i need a key for it? |

probably |

well, even to see if it gets into gfx mode is a plus. |

here's a boot disk if you need one https://archive.org/download/MAME_0.185_Software_List_ROMs_non-merged/MAME_0.185_Software_List_ROMs_non-merged.zip/MAME%200.185%20Software%20List%20ROMs%20%28non-merged%29%2Fibm5170%2Fwin95b.zip |

thank you. |

prolly won't be useful as i've already used a boot disk for 95. what i was looking for was a bootable cd. |
|
22:19
🔗
|
DFJustin |
probably doesn't exist since win95 era pcs couldn't boot from cd |
|
22:22
🔗

Vito` |
probably explains why my Win98 CD here also includes a boot floppy |

hm perhaps slip streaming was only partial to w98. it's been a while. |
