I wasn't aware of this <http://dosc.fdos.org/> either. now to the interesting part: at the bottom is a link fdkernel is maintained by PerditionC https://github.com/PerditionC following this link I find "vbxmount a DOS network redirector to allow access to VirtualBox's shared folders as a normal drive. Fork of Eduardo Casino's vbsmount." this is completely new to me; was this ever discussed on the msiling list? I find this tremendosuly useful as it really eases the communication between virtual DOS machines and the host. why was this never advertised? >> That is exactly the reasoning which does not work.
