This are some notes about sharing a folder from a host computer to a ArcaOS virtual machine guest using Valeriu's Virtual Box modified guest addons.
You can get the latest Valerui's Guest Addons at:
- Config.SYS Modifications
rem The main VBox additions driver device=d:\os2\boot\VBoxGuest.sys
rem The shared folders IFS ifs=d:\os2\boot\VBoxFS.ifs run=d:\os2\VBoxService.exe
rem VBox Mouse driver rem device=d:\os2\boot\mouse.sys device=d:\os2\boot\VBoxMouse.sys
- Video Driver
If you have SNAP:
set gradd_chains=c1set c1=sddgraddset greext=sddgrextset c1=vbxgradd
If you have Panorama:
set gradd_chains=c1set c1=vbe2gradset greext=panogrexset c1=vbxgradd
If you use VBox video driver:
set gradd_chains=c1 set c1=vbxgradd
Also, if you have SNAP installed, you can comment sddhelp.sys. But then, you also need to comment out/remove the
#includecode "sddpmi.dll"
from \os2\svgadata.pmi file and change it to
#includecode "genpmi.dll"
Otherwise, sddpmi.dll will load, and try to open sddhelp.sys driver, and fail, so, it will stop with an error message. To avoid this, you need to change sddpmi.dll to genpmi.dll in svgadata.pmi file.
Alternatively, you can just set your video driver to GenGRADD first with "setgradd" command in command line (you need to boot into command line for this), or use corresponding menu item in Recovery choices screen. But setgradd.cmd command and "Set video to GenGRADD" option in Recovery choices appeared in eComStation, only. Older versions of OS/2 have setvga.cmd command and "Set video to VGA" option, only. But you should use a GRADD video driver, so "Set video to VGA" option is not suitable in this case.
