bai |
hmm, if I recall, for win95 you have to boot real ms-dos using a bootable .img, rather than mounting the image as a drive and trying to run commands off of it |
|
00:26
🔗
|
bai |
if w95.img is prepared to be used by dosbox, then hopefully that means it's ghot all the bootable flags you want, and it's a matter of configuring dosbox.ini to mount the image and boot from it instead of booting dosbox's fake DOS environment |
|
00:28
🔗
|
bai |
oh yeah I see, you mount it with imgmount and then run `boot -l a` |
|
00:30
🔗
|
bai |
you might need a separate dos622.img or newer, mount that as a:\ and win95.img as c:\, and then boot from the dos image |

I tried mounting w95.img and booting off of that and it seems to have just hung |
|
00:32
🔗
|
bai |
so yeah, try throwing a dos bootdisk in alongside w95.img |
|
00:33
🔗
|

I think the -t floppy and -t hdd flags are also important |

there are probably at least 10-20 megs of fat we could cut off of this w95 image to make a bare minimum one like we have for win3.1 |
|

can probably swipe the minimal image from http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows95 at least |
|
06:25
🔗
|
bai |
huh. looking at the network tab as I'm using that image, it looks like that's not one image, but hundreds of 'em |
|
06:25
🔗
|
bai |
like they split it into one image per file, or per group of files or something like that |
|
06:26
🔗
|
bai |
so it's loading new images in on-demand as you browse the filesystem |
