Bochs Ported to PSP, Use Windows 95 on your PSP

innerlogic, that would be a great help, possibly more so if you can supply files as well, maybe the win95 image depending upon of course if it can be done legally.

Does anyone know of any small GUI based linux os's which could be run on a psp?

I, nor anyone else, can give you an image of Windows 95. If you wanna install it, you gotta get it yourself.

EDIT: It's pretty cheap anyway, so it's not a big deal.

I installed Windows 95 in Windows XP, I tried to put the image on my PSP, but it keeps crashing, so i'm guessing my config file is wrong. Other then that, In Windows XP and Linux I got the Windows 95 install runing, if anyone has got it working has a good config file, please put it up :-D

EDIT AGAIN: Nevermind, I got it working, I'll write up a guide in a little bit :-D

I must be doing somthing wrong,

I thought had everything configured correctly. But I must be on the right track, Somtimes i get a black screen,and it stays there instead of an error. If sombody could post there config file they used to get freedos to work that would really pribibly save me from having some sort of stress indused stroke

Still tho im on the right path,

Then you need an image boot file to load it, but I don't know where one is. Bound to be one out there, google is your friend I guess. I'll search in a bit,

BTW: yeah, this takes quite a while to boot... I mean, QUITE a while

And all i need to get things started is for somone to post there working config file to get free dos to work. Thats all i need to get the ball rolling, For some reason no matter how i config it i cant get this thing off the ground

Well, my config goes like this

################################################## #############
# Windows 95
################################################## #############

# how much memory the emulated machine will have
megs: 8

# filename of ROM images
romimage: file=ms0:/VM/BIOS-bochs-latest, address=0xf0000
vgaromimage: file=ms0:/VM/VGABIOS-lgpl-latest

# hard disk
ata0: enabled=1, ioaddr1=0x1f0, ioaddr2=0x3f0, irq=14
ata0-master: type=disk, path="ms0:/VM/c.img", mode=flat, cylinders=406, heads=16, spt=63

# choose the boot disk.
boot: c

# where do we send log messages?
log: ms0:/VM/bochsout.txt

# disable the mouse, since DLX is text only
mouse: enabled=1
----------------------------------

Change as needed.

EDIT: I pasted an old config that did not work, I changed it so NOW it will work, sorry about that

I have a cd version of win 95 how do you convert it to an Img?

**indstr** · August 14th, 2005, 02:03

so does anybody have any idea of approximately how fast this thing runs in dos? like what equivalent x86 machine would it run in terms of mhz? do you think it would be as fast as a 486dx 33? i would love to play some old dos classics from around 1993-1995 like hocus pocus, tyrian, jill of the jungle, alpha waves, etc etc
