I'm running qemu-kvm via virt-manager and have installed FreeDOS 1.2 successfully several times. The issue you are describing sounds interesting. What version of virt-manager/libvirt do you run? I'm running virt-manager on OpenBSD which is version 1.5.1 and libvirt/virtd on Centos7 which is version 4.5.0. I think I used the template for MS-DOS 6.22 or for Windows 3.11 when creating my current machine. If your disks (hdd and cd-rom) are not IDE, try removing them and adding IDE-drives instead to see if that works better. Not really sure what else to try, but hopefully this should get you started. /Magnus _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
