Sorry for the confusion.  I’m new to QEMU.  

 

So…

 

I created the image with the below command:

 

qemu-img create dos.img 200M

 

This is my command line to execute QEMU and mount the drives and emulate 
devices is below:

 

qemu-system-i386 -m 16 -k en-us -rtc base=localtime -device cirrus-vga -fda 
FLOPPY.img -hda freedos.img -cdrom FD12CD.iso -boot order=d

 

I have also tried to minimize the command to just:

 

qemu-system-i386 -fda FLOPPY.img -had freedos.img -cdrom FD12CD.iso -boot 
order=d

 

I believe the issue is that after it reboots from partitioning and formatting 
the C drive it no longer sees the CDROM when trying to access the source 
packages.  I issues trying to list the directory on the D drive when I exit 
from the installer.

FreeDOS (x86 software) won't boot (natively) on the Raspberry Pi 3 (ARM 
hardware), so if you got as far as to be able to select "install to hard disk", 
you must be using an x86 emulator, and, indeed, your screenshot shows that 
you're using QEMU. To minimize confusion, you should lead with the information 
that you're using QEMU, and follow it up with the fact that you're on a non x86 
platform, as there are differences in how QEMU handles guest code for the same 
architecture that it's running on and how it handles code for other 
architectures.

 

I myself haven't run FreeDOS on any platform other than x86 PCs, so I'm not 
sure how much help I can be, but can you say what emulated peripherals you set 
up for your FreeDOS  VM in QEMU?

I have tried multiple times to install FreeDOS on Raspberry Pi3.

 

I have created a 100M and 200M raw disk image.

 

Mounted the Standard and then tried with the Legacy ISO.

 

Both will boot the ISO, partition and format the hard disk. But when I reboot 
and select the Install to Harddisk after it goes to gathering settings a couple 
of minutes go by and I get:

 

I have also tried to mount the floppy.img as well as the ISO and boot from 
floppy with the same results.

 

Has anyone seen this and been able to resolve it?

 

Thank you,

 

Chris
