Trying to boot from the 1.2 cd iso on 86box gave me an endless scroll of errors. Following the advice below (at the boot screen hit "tab" and then type "raw" at the end of the command line) fixed it

Thanks!

I get this every time I install 1.2 on VirtualBox. Try hitting Tab then add " raw" after the command shown.

    Hello,

    I need some help. I am using VirtualBox 5.2.16 on Windows 10. I
    spotted
    that my virtual machine with FreeDOS had some weird corruptions so I
    decided to reinstall it.

    After booting the CD (FD12CD.iso), selecting the option "Install to
    harddisk" and waiting a little while it starts showing error messages
    with "Invalid Opcode". When I skip config.sys/autorun.bat on
    startup and
    run "setup.bat" manually it shows the language selection properly,
    but
    ends up with error "Unable to locate the installation packages. A
    reboot
    may help." If I run autorun.bat instead it shows the error messages
    "LBACACHE: XMS error.43ff Not enough free XMS memory." and "Can
    not set
    environment variable '_B'. Environment full?". Everything worked just
    fine before updating the VirtualBox. The checksums are appear to be
    correct so I don't think that installation iso is broken. Anyone
    has any
    ideas what it could be?

    Thanks in advance.
