Corrosion. Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I want to get Reactos working in Bochs or DosBox. Perferably in dosbox. I have a live reactos iso from their site, How do I create the .img needed for use with dosbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joerg Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Is it possible to run an operating system in a dos emulator? Not just good ol' dos games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Yeah, I thought it was the other way around, that you would want to run DosBox in ReactOS? I mean, should't ReactOS already be able to run Dos programs since it's built to run windows software anyway? ReactOS isn't a DOS program, its a whole operation system as where DosBox is just a DOS emulator to run older DOS programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrosion. Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Some people have gotten win 3.11 95 and 98 running from within dosbox.... there was a port made for dosbox to the psp. The psp slim has 64MB of ram. My idea was to get reactos running on the psp hoping that it would be fast enough to run some decent apps on it, thus making it possable to run many pc games/apps on the psp without needing a port.

Yeah, but I thought ReactOS was NT based?? Not Dos based, like previous versions of windows 3.1, 95 and 98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrosion. Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Yes it NT which is why I think it'll work better with bochs.. I dunno I want to test it on the psp and the only x86 emulators for it are bochs and dosbox and dosbox is faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
