Thanks James, my mega tallented tech Mike pointed out that they we may need to emulate a 5.25" HDD .. what format are the installation files that you have .. ISO?<br><br>I am suprised by the huge interest that we generated with this with many e-mails offlist, including our efforts to make a Win98, BeOS Ubuntu virtual machines. Something that we will need to properly finish and document. I wrote a brief wrap about it in the last InfoNet (In fact, am using an Ubuntu vmware machine to type up this e-mail) ;-)
<br><br>Very geeky regards from Roland<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 16/12/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Lawson, James</b> <<a href="mailto:LawsonJ@trinity.vic.edu.au">LawsonJ@trinity.vic.edu.au</a>> wrote:

<br>be able to get it to run under DOSBox, but I think it needs to use an<br>older DOS environment. SETVER command in DOS might do the trick. I<br>have installed WFW 3.11 this way, plus a variety of DOS apps, including<br>
good old WordPerfect 5.1. Also done 3.11 under VirtualPC. Only<br>drawback here is that you need all the drivers, whereas in DOSBox it<br>emulates and maps to the Windows drivers (using the DB Frontend).<br><br>James<br>
