Do you have a Windows 98 boot disc that you can ZIP up or image
up for me? It should only be 1.4MB so easy enough... hoping that
someone might have what will finish off my DOS emulation project.

So I'm working on a Dosbox-x system... I already have tons of DOS apps & games, old Apogee shooters and 'second reality' demo just rocking away perfectly... I chose to run it under a lite linux build, because its on an arm processor - as opposed to a Dosbian install... which I like; Dosbian is just a boot-directly to DOS prompt build of Dosbox for the raspberry pi... but I wanted to create individual .conf setups for each section of games... I want them to really dial in and play well on the light hardware.
Anyway, one of my last steps is getting some games that require Windows going... I've got Windows 98 almost installing perfectly, by loading the install CD as a CD-Rom image and then doing an actual install to C:\... but I don't have an actual DOS-hardware system, so I can't create a Windows 98 boot disk- nor do I have the actual boxed software with that disc available. I do have a valid Windows-98-key... but at any rate, I'm hoping that someone might:

why do you even need a bootdisk when you can reboot using a shortcut
with custo m autoexec and config.sys?
anyways, i emailed you a link
It got fully installed. I have a Win98hd.img, hard drive with a perfect install of Win98, I have Win98.img and a Win98Boot.img... however, even following the article to a tee I can't get past instructions #08 (Well I'm stuck AT #08...). I can't get dosbox to boot into Win98. :/

Getting there, but have to dive in with a clean mind tonight... if you do take a look, any suggestions?
