Okay, you might be interested in that I've got Superstor (the version
that comes with DRDOS6) to work with the DOSEMUlator. This includes the
virtual, hdimage file. So, now I've got my system configured as follows:
A - Real A
B - Real B
C - Superstored HDIMAGE
D - Superstored hda1
E - DISKIMAGE
F - HDIMAGE
G - hda1
H - /usr/dos
Of course, this is just a personal preference. I couldn't get DRDOS to work,
so I'm running MSDOS5.
Procedure (for those who are interested):
Copy SSTORDRV.SYS, DEVSWAP.COM, and SSTOR.EXE to your C: virtual drive.
Add "DEVICE=SSTORDEV.SYS" into the config.sys. Reboot the emulator.
Now run SSTOR.EXE, compress the drive.
Add "DEVICE=DEVSWAP.COM" to config.sys as well.
You have to muck around with the config.sys on the uncompressed, and compressed
drives. Note that MSDOS doesn't support the "CHAIN" option, so basically, I
found it easiest to put all the commands in the config.sys on the real drive,
and keep autoexec.bat on the virtual drive. You might have to add
"LASTDRIVE=x" to increase your number of dos drives.
Any questions, or advice to me, please mail me!
