>1. Download FDB8_144.DSK and base1.zip from www.freedos.org
2. Unpack base1.zip to a local directory
3. Create harddisk image with bximage (e.g. c.img with 10 MB)
4. Create floppy image 'base1.img' with bximage
5. Set up mtools.conf to access the new floppy image
6. Copy the installation files from the local directory to the floppy using mcopy
7. Set up Bochs for the FreeDOS installation:
boot: floppy
floppya: 1_44=FDB8_144.DSK, status=inserted
floppyb: 1_44=base1.img, status=inserted
ata0-master: type=disk, path=c.img, cylinders=20, heads=16, spt=63
8. Unfortunately the format command fails here if it is called from the install
program. So I chose this way to prepare the main installation:
a. Start bochs and select 'Clean Boot [4]' in the install menu
b. Partition the harddisk with fdisk
c. After the reboot select 'Clean Boot [4]' again
d. Format the harddisk with 'format c: /s'
e. Press the reset button to reboot and select 'Mini Install [0]'
7. Follow the instructions of the installation program. The source for the
installation is 'b:\'. After completing the installation you have to copy
the config.sys and autoexec.bat from the FreeDOS directory (e.g. C:\FDOS)
to 'c:\'.
8. Quit Bochs and change the boot drive to 'c'. FreeDOS should boot from harddisk
without errors.
9. I haven't tried the mouse or cdrom features inside of FreeDOS yet.</PRE
