Could I emulate "dos" in my Z?
« on: November 08, 2004, 03:44:09 am »
 

 Sorry for my poor english. And I have a question of "Emulating DOS"

 I wanna use some dos application in my Zaurus (C860) but I couldn`t find any tip to emulate DOS....

 So, Could I emulate "dos" in my Z?

 Have a nice day ^-^;

Yes you can. It depends on your operating system, but assuming the default there are already files created to do this. Two of the programs are dosbox and bochs.

zaurus.spy.org and www.killefiz.de/zaurus  will have some links for you. Please have a search on this forum for dos, and you should find some good tips.

My wish - to have a Command & Conquer style game on my Z! (FREECNC!!!) Simcity 2000 would also be great.

I don't think there is a qt version of these... it you want a non-terminal version you'll probably need to be running x/qt (search in forum). What kind of application are you trying to run on dos?

This version of Bochs works fine for me. Dont know about C860 compatibility.
