adosbox is the fully-functional dos emulator for android.With it you can install windows or play dos games like warcraft 1,2 pacman 2 etc.
This is the way to install windows 98 to odroid (this is the VERY powerful programm and i think it will work only at odroid-a and 0droid-7)
1)Download adosbox from here.
2)Download win98 live image.I used this.Unzip it and put win98.img to sdcard.
3)press menu, SDL settings, where to download app data, specify dir type /mnt/sdcard/ and delete .dosbox from dir
4)change conf file to this
5)restart
WIN 3.1 on odroid (for those who cant run win 98)
1)Download adosbox from here.
2)Download install files
3)Unzip winsetupfiles folder to sdcard
4)Create windows folder on sdcard
5)open dosbox and type this commands

Code:

mount d /mnt/sdcard/winsetupfiles
mount c /mnt/sdcard/windows
D:
setup

6) install windows(ITs easy )
7)restart emulator and type
mount c /mnt/sdcard/windows
c:
windows\win.com
8)You can add these strings to autoexec pard of dosbox config file for autostarting windows.

Hi,

It's a nice tutorial

Thanks,

Post here if anybody has tried

I believe Windows-95 on ODROID-A is very useful with MS-Office 95.
I'll try it this weekend. :-)
Thank you for your sharing.

Hello!
I found another way to install windows to any ODROID devices!
1)Install a Qemu for android from here
2)Download cache from here and extract SDL folder to sdcard
3)Put any img bootable discs to SDL folder.File should have name c.img (if you have an iso image you can change iso to img )
For examplewindows 98 But you can install any os you like (linux dos etc.)
4)Run libsdl app
It forks faster than adosbox.Programm emulates PC with pentium 2, 16mb ram, vga.
ps I tried to istall ics from android-x86.com but it doesnt work

Hi,

Can you tell me the exact location of extracted SDL.zip on the MicroSD card?
I can't find any proper location.
Do you think QEMU is faster than DosBox?


BTW, we are porting ICS to ODROID-A/PC now.
We almost completed the kernel porting with version 3.0.15 to ODROID-A/PC hardware.
I think we can release an alpha version ICS for ODROID-PC within 10 days.
And then, we may need additional 1 week to port it to ODROID-A because ODROID-PC has much simpler hardware configuration.

Kernel version of 3.0.x is very powerful for multi-core processing than relatively old 2.6.x.
So, we are focusing on the kernel update first.

location of sdl is /sdcard/SDL

I've tried QEMU with Win95&98 on Odroid-A. It was working but it was too slow..
I think Win95 is much more practical slightly.
We would better focus on ICS porting..

BTW, thank you for your sharing.

OK Im waiting ICS very much.

Hi guys,

I would like to try, but the link returns error..

thanks

Which of links?I checked and all works good.

The post #1 win98.rar, sometimes error sometimes a link pointing to upload file.

thank you for your signal.I reuploaded win98

hi,

the dosbox-0.77.conf link says resource not found

Repaired.I'm so sorry for these problems

Hi,

Thanks for the upload.. working but a bit slow.
btw, the win98.img, do you have references where I can get this files
or any method of creating an image

thanks

Hello Kermith the frog !
I got an installation image and installed it to virtual disk(in img format) on Qemu on windows.
You can do it this easy way:
Install qemu to pc to C:\qemu directory and put there install.iso with installation files then

Code:

qemu-img create -f raw disk.img 2000M //where is 2000 is disk size in megabytes
qemu.exe -m 1024 -boot d -cdrom image.iso -hda disk.img //for installing

After installation disk.img is your image for booting
