I’m glad you found it useful. 

When it comes to settings, I’ve mostly just be using the ones that VirtualBox 
defaults to when installing DOS.

Ah-hah.  Nothing works if you have switchar='-'.

NOW, fresh boot, FDIMPLE manages to install FDNET package.

Regan,

Where is the "fdinstall" program?  I cannot find one on my FreeDOS install.

When I do "dir /s fdinstall.exe" I get "File not found.".  Ditto for "
fdinstall.com".

Thanks,

Jerome,

When I try this, I see this on screen after selecting "OK":

install d:\net\fdnet.zip  (white text on blue)
Aborted.
C:\>

If I type "install", I get 'bad command or filename - "install".'

>From where does the "install" program come?

dir /s install.exe returns "File not found."  Ditto for "install.com".

Abe,

Running Linux, so Windows ability to mount VHD is not useful.

Bill,

Earlier this summer, one of the many helpful people here pointed out 
that the VHD format can be mounted directly by Windows. You can probably 
find a guide for doing something similar on Linux with whatever format 
you have chosen. The VM of course needs to be off while mounted by the 
host so this method may not be as convenient as networking. But I 
thought I would mention it as a possibility.

Best,
Abe

Re: [Freedos-user] Simple guide for networking FreeDOS 1.2 in a VirtualBox VM ?

[regan]

Hello Bill, 

Using Freedos 1.2 and Virtual box Version 5.1.10 r112026 (Qt5.6.2)

When I installed Freedos, I installed the standard CD image, I got a second
disk path D:
I did this:
cd C:\fdos\bin
dir D:\net
C:
rem foreach package in the directory listing I did (each package) becomes
each zip file.
fdinstall install d:\net\(each package).zip
fdinstall install d:\net\(each package).zip
fdinstall install d:\net\(each package).zip

fdinstall install d:\net\(each package).zip
reboot

To test this I did the following..

I did a wget mySAN\filepath
eg:
wget 192.168.0.171:/unix/algol.txt 

... and it just worked.

I have the entire turbo gameworks, turbo pascal, turbo this-or-that toolbox
on 5.25" floppies somewhere.. ;-) ... BTW, I won a Xeon Phi as a university
prize but I have nothing to put it in, so it sits in the packaging, whats
the deal with the Phi thing in your signature?

No guide needed under VirtualBox

Install the FDNET package and reboot.

If you downloaded a CD version and did a FULL (not BASE) install, just:

1) boot the VM
2) attach the FreeDOS 1.2 CD
3) run FDIMPLES
4) Select FDNET under the networking group and pick OK.
5) reboot.

Done.

[Freedos-user] Simple guide for networking FreeDOS 1.2 in a VirtualBox VM ?

[William Dudley]

Is there a simple guide for networking FreeDOS 1.2 in a VirtualBox VM ?

1.2 is too new for there to be anything in the mailing list archives on
this.

I never got networking going in the previous FreeDOS release.  Getting files
in and out (especially out) of the VM is like pulling teeth.

Thanks,
Bill Dudley
