Disk size are constructed by:
number of heads (or sides) (H)
number of tracks (or cylinders) per heads (T)
number of sectors per tracks (S)
number of bytes per sector = 512
in your case: 3GB = H * T * S * 512
where the H, T & S must be compatible with INT 13h spec, if the img are intended to be used for dosbox
Maximum value for T are 1024,
Maximum value for S are 63,
Maximum value for H are 255
-fffuuu
The image will be created from dosbox svn and there i shall tell it what size to make the imgmake, and im gonna use the img file in PC'em that needs a .img as the hard disk image. there the biggest i can make are with over 500
Use bochs... 😉
AFAIK lock stock Dosbox SVN doesn't provide the functionality to make an hd image
Can i make images with that program?
but where does the image end up to?
Where you create it? You can probably pass a path or so...
