    I tried to install build 58s on vbox 5 but it wont work. I set the date to 8.9.1993

    @helloisthispizzahut
    Build 58s won't work in VirtualBox, you need to use PCem or 86Box.

    @NineOEight I'm not sure. BetaWiki doesn't have them listed.

    Stuck at bootscreen when trying booting Chicago in VMware Workstation, idk why...
  • jonirobjonirob
    @gomgomimmanuel
    Chicago doesn't install easily in VMware, You need to use an emulator like 86Box or PCem.
  • gomgomimmanuelgomgomimmanuel
    @jonirob okay thanks for the answer, i will try use PCem later.
  • swsweswswe

    build 4.00.116 + 4.00.122 have badly named PRECOPY1.CAB files which are named as PRECOPY.CAB ... if you look inside PRECOPY2.CAB with a hexeditor, at the top of the file you will see it expects a file named PRECOPY1.CAB

    edit: ok so i just noticed that MINI.CAB does expect to have PRECOPY.CAB name but PRECOPY2.CAB expects PRECOPY1.CAB name, weird, when i tried to extract setupx/setuppp from precopy2.cab i got errors until i changed the name, but that then breaks MINI.CAB

    I guess its either meant to be like this, or its an over sight as the .99 build only has a mini.cab linked to a precopy.cab and thats right before these two builds and after these is when precopy1/precopy2 is starting to get used.

    I am re-trying out build 122 using KenOath's VHD, i will try getting some programs and maybe run it on my phone, like i did to build 189, albeit the vhd not being mine and only being like 128MB

    So: make a dupe of the offending CAB, rename it to whatever is needed.

    These builds are betas and one must adapt....
