I have several floppy images (both downloaded and created by WinImage)
I'm able to boot into a MS-DOS 6.22 floppy without any problems, so I know the booting mechanism works.
However, whenever I try booting into I run into a problem. In the DOSBox program window I get:
T:\>boot win95b.ima
Opening image file: win95.ima
Booting from drive ¿... [upside down question mark is really displayed]
Starting Windows 95...
Type the name of the Command Interpreter (i.g., C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM)
a>
In the status window I get:
Loaded disk 0 from swaplist position 0 - "win95b.ima"
Loaded disk 1 from swaplist position 0 - "win95b.ima"
AX 0 DX 3
AX 0 DX 2
AX 0 DX 1
AX 0 DX 0
Write 0 to rom at fffea
Write 0 to rom at fffeb
Write 0 to rom at fffec
Write 0 to rom at fffed
Write 0 to rom at fffea
Write 0 to rom at fffeb
Write 0 to rom at fffec
Write 0 to rom at fffed
The same thing happens with both Win95b and Win98 images. I know the floppies work, since I can boot from them. Is there a trick to insuring that the boot process finds the appropriate command interpreter?
Thanks!
