MS-DOS is a great 'little' OS for bootstrapping other operating systems. If you are going to install Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows Me, Novell Netware, Windows NT 3.1/3.5/3.51/4.0 or even setup a dual boot OS/2 VM it's best to start here.
Nov 24, 2005 Installing, running and working with 9x virtual PCs under 98/ME systems with QEMU made very easy. Highly recommended for poor service packs creators and testers alike as it's all free. Just follow the few easy steps and in a few hours you'll be running not only a fast and responsive (on recent hardware) but also a very usefull 9x emulation. Description Mac OS 9 requires at least a PowerPC G3 and can only be used on a PowerPC architecture. However, using QEMU, running it as a Virtual Machine is. Intel x86-64. Compatibility notes. This program is for Windows. USEFUL TIPS WHEN USING QEMU: To install another Mac OS version, exit QEMU if it's running and then simply edit the 'QEMU - Boot with a CD ISO.bat' command file with the Notepad to reflect your actual install CD ISO file location and launch that batch file.
First MS-DOS 5.0 & 6.0 (6.1/6.2/6.22) are the 'best' versions to load as they can support a hard disk up to 2GB in size. MS-DOS 4.0 can only use 32MB partitions, however it can use extended partitions. So you can have LOTS of 32MB partitions. MS-DOS 3.x can only use a single 32MB partition. I wouldn't waste time with MS-DOS 1, as it has no support for hard disks, and early 2.0 doesn't have support for directories.

In this example I'm going to install MS-DOS 6.22. It's very straight forward.
Create a hard disk
The first step is to create a hard disk image. I'm going to create a 2GB one, so the syntax is:
Installing MS-DOS
Vintage kustom amp serial numbers. MS-DOS uses the BIOS for all IO so the ISA/PCI thing doesn't matter. Also the installation, and all files will run on 8088/8086 or higher so you don't have to worry about any cpu flags. MS-DOS himem.sys will only see a maximum of 64MB of ram. So there is no point in letting qemu grab 128mb of ram.
On the first boot, MS-DOS will partition the disk & slap down a MBR. Let it have the whole disk, you just hit enter a few times, then qemu will reboot, then it will format the disk & then prompt for disk two. Remember it's control+alt+2 to get to the qemu console to change the floppy to dos622_2.img, then control+alt+1 to get back to the display to hit enter. 3 10 to yuma script pdf. You only have to do this twice, then MS-DOS is installed. Once it is installed, you can close Qemu.

You can now start Qemu like this:
And you are good to go.

Sound
Qemu has various sound options, but for MS-DOS the best is to enable the PC-speaker, Adlib and SoundBlaster cards.
For reference, the BLASTER environment variable should be set to the following:
Where to go from here

Well MS-DOS by itself isn't that useful, you may want to investigate network clients (ones that use TCP/IP are better!), sound settings and of course CD-ROM access. I'll update these topics in the future.
