I'm trying to install Windows 1 on Dosbox but just can't seem to.
I get this 3 screen loop in the setup.

I had a problem while trying to install win 2, but that got solved after i read the dosbox wiki guide. (probably the "ver set 4.0" thing).
but that did nothing for the 1.x install.

Can you help?
(I'm new 😊 )

I get past the error on the image shown. In order to get past a later error, you have to mount the directory containing the installation files as drive A. However, I'm stuck further on:

Youtube shows that running Windows 1.0 on Dosbox is possible:
