Installing Windows 98 as a Guest OS

All Windows 95 and some of Windows 98 installation packages include a bootable floppy (a

startup floppy disk). The floppy is used to perform disk partitioning and formatting by means of

MS-DOS. Since a modern Macintosh computer do not have a floppy drive, you will need an

external USB floppy drive or an image of a boot floppy. Please refer to the Floppy Disk Images

(page 21) topic.

If you have a bootable CD with Windows 98 installation, you may use it "as is" or may create

an ISO image of the CD.

Below we describe the installation procedure for Window 98, for the case when you have a

startup floppy image and a CD-ROM with installation files. The installation of Windows 95 is

similar to that.

Preparing a Virtual Machine for Windows 95/98 Installation

We recommend that you use a virtual machine created with a configuration typical for Windows

98 (128MB RAM and 6GB hard disk). If you created a custom configuration, check that virtual

machine's RAM and hard disk size meet particular OS's requirements.

Note. For Windows 95 do not create virtual hard disks with more than 2 Gb, they are not

supported by the system.

If you have a bootable floppy image, perform the following operations:

1 On the last dialog of the OS Installation Assistant in the More Options, clear the check box

for the Start Windows 95/98 installation option and click Finish.

2 Open the Booting Options (page 161) tab in Configuration Editor and set boot sequence to

[Floppy, Hard disk, CD-ROM].

3 Open the Floppy options tab in Configuration Editor.

4 Make sure the Enabled and Connect at Startup options are selected. Specify the floppy image

in the Emulation section of the tab.

5 Click OK to close Configuration Editor.

Initial Partitioning and Formatting

1 Start the virtual machine. You will see the black screen and messages indicating the process

of booting to MS DOS.

2 When prompted, type the following command:

fdisk

and press Return (Enter). This MS-DOS utility, Fdisk, is used to partition hard disks

and floppies.
