rpix86 DOS game emulator

Fri Apr 15, 2016 10:02 pm

Anyone familiar with the x86 DOS emulator for the pi? Installing DOS games?

I am having difficulty running/installing an old DOS game (Starflight). Not quite sure what i am doing wrong, If i try to run 'starflt.com' (c:\strflt>starflt) it closes the emulator, and if I try hd install 'hdinstl.bat' (c:\strflt>hdinstl c:) it shows files as missing/empty (It wants the disk to be in floppy drive, but the data is in the files).

I cannot get it to run. Any suggestions/ideas?

EDIT
When I run starflt.com, I get a segmentation fault...
segmentation fault (often shortened to segfault) or access violation is a fault raised by hardware with memory protection, notifying an operating system (OS) about a memory access violation; on x86 computers this is a form of general protection fault
