Hi,
to reproduce this FIND problem, I tried to setup a new FD1.2 machine.
what I did:
download FD12LGC.ISO
create a new virtual box machine with 512 MB disk
use FD12LGC.ISO to boot the machine.
boot machine.
'Unfortunately, this method of installation is not supported on this
hardware platform. Please try a different installation method.'
Welcome to the FreeDOS 1.2 operating system.
now what?
a hint to use the other .ISO would have been be helpful
eventually I figured this out, and setup was successful.
some remarks though:
the setup results in
FDCONFIG.SYS:
12:DOS=UMB
makes virtually never sense. DOS=HIGH,UMB is always the better
option.
what purpose is SHARE supposed to have?
SHARE is useful when the machine is running as a server, or with
windows (or any other multitasking OS).
don't install this.
Tom
