Hello,
What type of hd image should I choose in order to open .img file
created by bximage? ( I know now vmware image, but still only see 8MB)
If I use (fd image), i can only see 8MB disk space which isn't enough for win95.
Did I just overlook something?
I type 512 in bximage for hd size, and use 512,63,16,1040 -fs fat
to no avail
Thanks
Jack

Try a smaller image (e.g., 480 mb) and use vmware plain image in diskexplorer. I remember having problems with a 512 megabyte disk size.

It's not that many to go through... Or look at the disk image guide in the dosbox guide forum...

Has anyone tried win98? what other things have not been implemented yet so that win98 seems to be very unstable? eventually halt Dosbox.
Thanks
