I found this install guide for Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space at Glenns Guides. (link) http://www.glennsguides.com/2009/07/buzz-aldr … ce-pc-game.html
I tried repeatedly following this guide to install the game but it just wouldn't work for me. Could you please help me?
First of all, when I tried to install a second DOSbox 0.73 from the setup folder onto my netbook, it wouldn't install a second, special-for-buzz-aldrin-dosbox into the C:\Buzz folder that I created on my netbook's hard drive, and when I tried to make my current DOSbox write a second config file (named dosbox.conf 001) that would just be used for the buzz aldrin race into space game, it wouldn't write this.

And I am stumped as to where the C:\games\Eclipse folder mentioned in this guide came from.

Am d/l the 2 Baris thingys (baris 001 and baris 002) from

http://peyre.sqweebs.com/BARIS/index.htm

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT - I got it to install using a different method, and am now play-testing the game on my netbook under dosbox.

Thanks anyway. 😎

That BARIS page on Sqweebs (the Docking Module) also includes some instructions for setting up the game--those might be helpful, though they're a little out of date. I should probably update them sometime... But I don't play original BARIS any more, since the game's now been ported to Windows, Linux, and Mac. The port is even still being developed, though at a slow rate. You can download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/raceintospace/.
