Windows Xp Img Bochs



Centralize design collaboration, developer hand-off, version control, screen flows, & feedback in one tool. Windows 10 Img File For Bochs. I installed Windows XP within bochs 2. The core was modeled and tested based on the Bochs software x86 implementation. About a year to 2 years before, Windows for PSP was released and emulated through Bochs. Install Windows XP in the boot image 1. Copy the c.img file you created with bochs to the qemu-0.13.0-windows folder from my pack. Copy your Windows XP iso file to the same folder and rename it to xp.iso 3. Open up Qemu by running qemu-win.bat 4. The Virtual machine will start and run the installation of Windows XP.

What you need:

  • An executable version of Bochs. See Downloading Bochs and Compiling Bochs.

  • The bximage program, included with Bochs.

  • A FreeDOS boot disk, or a boot disk from another OS capable ofproducing DOS partitions (e.g. a Linux install disk).

  • (Optional) mtools, a program for manipulating DOS disks/images.

Bochs8.2.1. Create a flat image

Option 1: Using the Unix dd utility:

You will need to know the geometry of the disk you want tocreate. You have to compute the disk sector count:

Use the dd command to create your file:(replace 'sectors' with the number you computed at theprevious step).

When you'll update your configuration file, pleasefill in the same cylinders, heads and sector pertrack values.

Option 2: Run bximage to create a disk image file.You will be greeted with the following prompt:

Since we want to create a new image, we have to type '1'and then Enter.

Since we are creating a hard disk image, accept the default of hd bypressing Enter or typing 'hd' and pressingEnter. Next, bximage will ask for the type ofhd to create:

We want to create a simple flat image, so accept the defaultby pressing Enter. Then, bximage will askfor the size of the disk image you want to create, in Megabytes:

Enter the size of the hard disk you want to create, and pressEnter. Then bximage will ask you for a filename to usefor the file it is creating.

At this point, type in the filename you want to use for the image. Thedefault of 'c.img' is appropriate if this will be your only hard diskimage. After you have typed in the name of the filename you want touse, press Enter. Bximage will tell you it is writing the diskand then it will show you a line that should be added to yourbochsrc when you want to use this disk image. I named my10 Megabyte image 'teaching.img' and the output of bximage looked likethis:

The following line should appear in your bochsrc:

At this point, a file called 'teaching.img' was created in my currentdirectory and is ready to be used as an image file for a Bochs session.

Tip: You may want to name your image teaching_20-16-63.imgso that you always know the values to use for CHS.

8.2.2. Partition and format your image file

Windows Xp Img For Bochs

Option 1: Using FreeDOS (Advantage: Creates a MBR on the partition.)

First, you need to edit the bochsrc file that Bochs uses forconfiguration information (see Section 5.2). Open bochsrcwith a text editor. Remove all lines in the file which start with 'ata0-master:'. Add the 'ata0-master:'line that was displayed when you ran bximage to bochsrc at thesame place where you removed the old 'ata0-master:' lines from.

Also, you need to download or create a FreeDOS (or DOS, or Windows, orLinux) disk image. Modify the 'floppya:' line in your bochsrc to pointat the downloaded FreeDOS floppy image and change its status to 'status=inserted'.

Save and close your bochsrc. Now run Bochs (see Chapter 5).

Use the standard FreeDOS commands fdisk andformat to format your harddrive image. You must make the image bootable to be able to bootwithout a floppy disk. However, creating a bootable disk image is bestdone with a boot disk from the OS you intend to install on the image.

Option 2: Using mtools (Disadvantage: Cannot create bootable imageswithout a MBR image.)

Use a text editor to add the following line to the file ~/.mtoolsrc:

Save and close .mtoolsrc. Next, execute the following commands tocreate a partition table for the drive image:

Bochs

For example, for my 10 meg drive, I used:

Next, format the partition you just created using the mformat command:

And you now have a formatted disk image containing a single DOSpartition.

Note: The mpartition command doesn't handle images larger than 1024 cylinders properly.The partition size reported by fdisk is okay, but mformat reports only 504 MB(tested with mtools 3.9.9).

I can’t believe I’m saying it, but you can run Windows 7 on your Android device. To be honest, I was convinced that running Windows XP on Android would be the final step in Windows emulation, but I was wrong. Before you get too excited about playing the latest AAA title on your phone, keep in mind that this is nothing further than a proof of concept. The performance is painfully sluggish and the app might crash if Windows starts using too much memory.

How are we doing this? This is all thanks to the bochs emulator which allows us to emulate practically anything; including running Windows 95 on Android. The driving force behind bochs is the SDL library which is built into a lot of other emulation apps. For example, Xash3D partially uses it to to allow the use of cool stuff like Counter Strike on Android wear. The copy of Windows 7 that we will be using is a portable and debloated version that I found online. So use this at your own risk. So here’s how to run Windows 7 on Android:

What You Will Need:

Windows

How To:

First download the SDL zip from above. Then copy and paste the SDL folder to your device’s internal storage.

Next download the install the Bochs Apk. When you launch it, it should begin booting Windows 7. Remember, this is going to take a long time to boot. It took me approximately 15 minutes util I was at the desktop screen. For added productivity, you can connect an external keyboard and mouse. Unfortunately, there is no internet connection so you are limited to local programs only. I also doubt that this will be able to handle Chrome or Internet explorer anyway. When you are done playing around with windows, remember to properly shut down or you will be force to sit through repair options the next time you boot up.
