Dear Members, I recently bought a Pocket 386 machine, and among others, I also tried to install FreeDOS on it. Actually I installed the 1.4 version in VirtualBox, with the virtual hard drive redirected to a CF card. There, I had to follow the steps described over at https://www.both.org/?p=5690 to get FreeDOS to boot properly, because the BIOS in the Pocket 386 doesn't support LBA addressing only CHS. With that out of the way, the machine boots properly, but when it gets to the prompt about jemm386, and I choose options 1 or 2, I get the following error message, then jemm386 crashes.
Jemm386: exception 06 occured at CS:EIP-CA57=000009EE, ERRC=00000000 SS:ESP=DB36:000011ΖΕ ΕΒΡ=00001D3C EFL=00033203 CR0=FFFFFFF1 CR2=00000000 EAX=00004353 EBX=00001DE9 ECX=00000000 EDX=00000043 ESI=00000068 EDI=00002604 DS=CA57 ES=CA57 FS=DB36 GS=00D9 [CS:IP]=D6 0A C0 C3 86 Ε0 30 80 Press ESC to abort program After this, my only option is to reboot the machine, as the OS is unusable. My other option is to select option 3 at the menu, but that only leaves me with 640 KB of memory, which is not that great. What should I do?
