Installing Lindows in a virtual machine

[Bads]

Hello,

I try to install Lindows 1.1.1 in a virtual machine

I boot from the CD and the program (Lindows) said CD-Rom complete,remove the CD, and hit any key to reboot.

When I reboot, it ask for a CD and the same thing happend again and again

How did you install this program in a virtual machine ??

Thanks for your help, I really want to try this OS

Hi Bads
Worked fine for me
When you right click on the cd icon (left under) you can capture or release
your host cdrom drive

You can also work with an iso image on your hard drive

Maybe you forgot to capture your drive

Thanks greypigeon,

But I capture the CD-rom and the virtual pc always reboot

Maybe I have to work with a floppy ?

This is the message I always receive :

Shutdown complete

Please remove CD
If installed from CD

Press any Key to reboot

The same thing always happens to me too, be it in a virtual pc or my own, I think Zone-MR had this same problem too, I never did get it to install, mabye he did and can tell you how, I know he tried virtually every hardware config known to man, lol.

Ok you want Lindows to install, do this first explore your lindows cd and run the Lindows exe. it will then install a couple of files, then you can run the Lindows cd, when it says shut down then do it and change your bios to boot from the cd. It should work.. and by the way 1.1.1 is an old version thay are already up to 1.2.49.... I have been running it since day 1

Try checking the md5sums of the iso's and compare with other people. They should be the same otherwise something is wrong with the iso.
