Hi all, I am happy to announce that some very annoying problems with running FreeDOS as guest in VirtualBox have been fixed.
Jack R. Ellis has fixed the "Virtual floppy change problem" this list has talked about. Eric Auer has written the free VBOX-FIX.COM, a workaround for a VirtualBox bug that made UIDE.SYS hang at boot for 3 minutes. I have updated the FreeDOS wiki with information about these changes. http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/freedos/index.php?title=VirtualBox_-_Chapter_8 http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/freedos/index.php?title=VirtualBox_-_Chapter_11 Thanks again to Jack and Eric for all the bug-hunting and for writing the code and to Bernd Blaauw for his help! regards Ulrich ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
