Hello everyone, today we'll be taking a trip further back in time to the early days of personal computing
with Windows 2.x. Released in 1987, Windows 2.x was the second iteration of Microsoft's operating system and
brought many new features to the table.
As we install Windows 2.x, we can reflect on how much the world has changed since the late 80s, when
personal computers were just beginning to gain popularity. It's fascinating to think about how much progress
has been made since then, and how we now take for granted features that were once cutting-edge technology.
Join us as we explore the past and take a stroll down memory lane with Windows 2.x. We'll experience the
nostalgia of using classic software and marvel at how far computing has come in just a few decades. Let's
dive in!
</div>
<div id="page-2">
To begin the installation process for Windows 2.x, you will need to obtain the distribution files, which are
contained on 6 floppy disks. You can download the distribution from the link provided below and extract the
files to a designated location on your computer.
<p class="mt-4"><a class="link link-accent" href="win/win2x.zip">Windows 2.x</a></p>
</div>
<div id="page-3">
Now press on "<span class="underline">Create empty bundle</span>" link.<br /><br />
This will create empty file system for your Windows installation.
</div>
<div id="page-4">
To configure your DOSBox-X settings for Windows installation, look for the DOSBox-X configuration panel on
the
left side
of your screen.
Within this panel, you'll find a selection of built-in templates that you can use to set up your Windows
installation.
Simply click on one of the buttons to select the template that best suits your needs.
<br /><br />
<button>Win 2.x</button>
<br /><br />
These templates are designed to make the installation process as straightforward as possible, so be sure to
choose
the one that matches your Windows installation requirements.
</div>
<div id="page-5">
<div class="flex flex-col">
To start the actual installation process press the play button.

Now you have clean dos installation with empty hard drive C:.
Let's mount Windows 2.x installation files to DOSBox-X.
To do this press on file system icon to open file system explorer.

DOSBox-X has a file system cache, which means that we need to remount our C: drive.
Execute the following command to remount the hard drive:
<div class="mockup-code bg-base-100 my-8 text-sm">
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>MOUNT -U C</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="Z:\"><code>MOUNT C .</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="Z:\"><code>C:</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>DIR</code></pre>
</div>
You should now see a file listing of your C: drive. It should contain the Windows installation files.
If it does, you can continue with installation.
</div>
<div id="page-8">
Windows 2.x versions were distributed on diskettes. Though it is feasible to install Windows 2.x by using
floppy images in DOSBox-X, it can be quite cumbersome to swap disks for a significant number of disks.
To avoid this, it is advisable to create a directory named "INSTALL" and copy the contents of ALL the diskettes
into this directory. By doing so, you can bypass the need to switch disks during the installation process.
</div>
<div id="page-9">
In this example, DOSBox-X itself is used to mount a disk image, copy its contents into a folder, unmount the
disk image and do the next.
<div class="mockup-code bg-base-100 my-8 text-sm">
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>MD INSTALL</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK01.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK02.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK03.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK04.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK05.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A DISK06.IMG -U</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>XCOPY A:\. C:\INSTALL /S /Y</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>IMGMOUNT A -U</code></pre>
</div>
Your new INSTALL directory now holds the contents of all of floppy disks.
</div>
<div id="page-10">
You now need to mount your "INSTALL" directory as the A: drive in DOSBox-X, and
start the installation.
<div class="mockup-code bg-base-100 my-8 text-sm">
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>MOUNT A INSTALL</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>A:</code></pre>
<pre data-prefix="C:\"><code>SETUP.EXE</code></pre>
</div>
The setup program will ask several question relating to mouse, display, printer and the keyboard layout.
</div>
<div id="page-11">
<p class="text-accent">Installation Directory</p>
<p>Simply press Enter to continue as prompted.</p>

When the setup program is finished, and you are ready to start Windows 2.x, but first, let's modify this
bundle to automatically start the Windows on boot. We need to change the DOSBox-X config file. To do this,
open the file system explorer and press the restart button to rebuild the bundle.
