Updated to fix the PATH and Screensize issues. (Beta4)

My only thoughts on posting a direct image is whatever size drive I use, that’s the size the user would be stuck with unless they are comfortable with gparted or another partioning utility. Am I wrong?

Hey Guys - well I've got a DOSBox Live Distro to test if any of you are interested. TinyCore was a great recommendation. I got the debian version working first but honestly it was like 10x longer loading with more compatibility issues. I made a new thread about it here: https://www.vogons.org/ …

Hi, Link to youtube video (Crap Quality, Sorry): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cjead5TNkRc Updates: - now using the \dosbox folder in the root directory of the USB drive as the place to copy your DOS games. - added a quick demo of DOSBox Distro's abilities, use the command: dbdmenu - added a …

I'm probably the wrong person to help, I'm still very new to linux. Just excited that others are working on similar ideas. I think I'm going to attempt a combination of what has been done so far. I'm interesting in getting the LIVECD image working so you don't need to install on a harddisk, but you …

Wow, how did my search not find this post. I was asking this question just the other day. (http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58019) I'll have to compare OPs method to this (https://github.com/superjamie/lazyweb/wiki/Boot-to-DOSBox), but if your ISO saves me some work I'll gladly switch to …

My apologies for necro bumping this old thread but soren still seems active here, hopefully he will notice. I've been playing with some thin clients lately and the Neoware CA2 does seem interesting because it appears to be the 2nd most powerful thin client with native SB support (although I see you …

Hi guys, Curious how much disk space are you using for DoS based games/utils/emulators ect? (lets leave windows 3.1/95/98 out of it for now). I remember 'back in the day' my 486 had ~510mb of storage (170mb + 340mb) using drive compression and was nearly completely filled. I'd like to recreate my …

I started playing with Tinycore but realized apt-get wasn’t included which would make the installion of DOSbox more challenging. Fortunately I found this: https://github.com/superjamie/lazyweb/wiki/Boot-to-DOSBox I’m going to give that a shot.

Now that I looked at tinycore (core) and debian netinst, I'm convinced that is the way to go. Even those minimal configurations require >20mb of ram. Guess that will have to be OK, since anything with less ram would be old enough to have native DOS support. Hmm, you might be right about this idea …

I'm not very proficient with linux but I'm trying now. For my first attempt it looks like using Slax will be the quickest way to achieve my goal. I'm trying to figure out if i can remove some of the included modules like Chromium, apps, and desktop and then having it 'autostart' the DOSBox module.

Has there ever been any talk of DOSBox as a Linux Distro? I know quite a few gaming centric linux distro's include DOSbox, but I was curious has there ever been a specialize Linux Distro that loaded directly into DOSBox? Basically it would be like FreeDOS but with the massive hardware support ( …
