You will now have the floppy image mounted as a virtual floppy drive which you can see by using Windows Explorer, look at Drive A (or B). Navigate to the floppy image file for MSDOS 6.22 disk 1, and use defaults of RAM, 3.5" 1.44MB, Write Protect unchecked,Ĭlick the Open button. Start with tab 1 (Drive0), click the button Change, select drive letter A, uncheck the checkbox Persistent, click the OK button.

If you do, then pick another letter than A, like B. This assumes you do not have a floppy drive on your computer. Set the correct drive name for the first floppy drive.

HOW TO GET MSDOS 6.22 INSTALLED AND RUNNING to do this, conventional OS in a VIRTUAL world is JUST basic, no real bit swapping or even low level assembler can be done.This is a little long, but this is how I did it: UNLESS you write your OWN OS, that's why PARAVIRTUALIZATION was invented.

It's VIRTUAL, which means you can't manipulated it. So DOS, QEMM, upper memory blocks, video pages, memory paging.

QEMM was designed for HARDWARE, not software based machines, it was written a long LONG time ago and you will never get this to work, because that architecture has changed a hundred times since then, but now it's not even Intel, its a software rewrite. And since a VM cannot get access to the Hyper-V, then it's impossible to achieve this. I say it's random because the hypervisor grabs whatever block of memory it can get at the TIME the VM is booted, it's not the same block. You CANNOT manipulate the mapping, extended memory or ANY other CPU video related functions, because you do NOT have access to the hardware, it's SOFTWARE emulation, which means that the Virtual machine is an emulation, it's fake, it's not REAL, ANY semblance of real its completely imaginary and it's RANDOM, the other part that people fail to realize. I don't understand why people continue to be in denial that SOFTWARE virtualization is NOT NOT hardware. Playing whith memory caching in VMware's BIOS didn't get me anything. I do not remember exact naming)? QEMM fails to boot on last stage. When i try to remove it with "Enable BIOS remap" feature (or smth. Using mft from QEMM tells me that after 640K there is 2K of "Extended BIOS Area".
