![]() ISO in RAM and making it look like another hard drive attached to the system (which none do - but there are some BIOSes in the late 80's that had DOS in ROM and such), or you run an overlay loader that does this before booting MS-DOS (I don't know of any or if that would even work), you can't do this. So - unless your BIOS (not anything else) supports loading an. There is no way to "preload" things from CONFIG.SYS to get around that. Now how do I play it in DOSBox Pure When I launch the ISO, I (expectedly) get to browse the contents of the CD, and I can also run the installer and install the game on C. No RAM drive can be available until at least IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS is loaded - and it will try to load it from the same place it was booted from AFAIK. Libretro Cores mrmatteastwood 13:58 1 Hello, community I got myself the CD ROM ISO for The Patrician BY DUMPING MY OWN PHYSICAL DISC. )The problem is that when DOS boots, it needs to load IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS, then CONFIG.SYS and any files CONFIG.SYS points to, and it will use the BIOS routines to do that. You might think then you can find some DOS-based RAM disk ( RAMDRIVE.SYS? It's been a long time. The -t cdrom at the end tells DOSBox to map a CD Rom drive to the drive. ![]() MS-DOS uses real-mode 16-bit BIOS calls to enumerate and access disks, as well as anything that DEVICE= or DEVICEHIGH= lines in your CONFIG.SYS might install. For that, we need to use the command mount d c:/directory to game here -t. GRUB is not required, it's just what I found so long on my internet researches. How do I load MS-DOS and additional files into RAM and boot it? If this is on the same "drive" (say ISO) or on a second one doesn't matter. So upon booting, I want to have MS-DOS started with the access to the other data. I need to have an edited MS-DOS, as I want include command files like for xcopy, net use, NTFS4DOS and so on. switching the keyboard layout or include another small file), it refuses to boot it. ![]() Unfortunatelly if I edit the MS-DOS ISO (in any way, e.g. My first thought was to use GRUB to load it into the RAM and start it. So when I unplug the USB stick, all data should be accessable via RAM. (I just mind the maximum 1.44 MB of a floppy, which wouldn't fit.) I also want to have a second ISO mounted into the RAM, but these files could also be loaded into the first image, if it has to. Included in that ISO should be a running MS-DOS (which version doesn't matter at first). I want to load an ISO into my RAM from an USB flash drive. I don't have much experience in doing this, so I'm here to ask for help.
