With whatever fixes are required... something 386SXy maybe? It's not going to be even remotely fast.
Ok, I just wanted to have an idea. Thanks! :D

Just out of curiosity, do you have a rough idea of what could be the maximum CPU PCem can achieve on a Raspberry Pi 3 at current stage? 386, 486/66 maybe?

Re: Physical disk as Pcem hard disk?

The goal is using the SD card as a whole so commands like FDISK would write over the MBR of the SD card (and make partitions on that SD), SYS would make a partition bootable (writting the boot record of the partition) and so on. Hmm I believe is almost the same, anyway, reading from a SD card would...

I currently have a 512 MB, 1 GB and 2 GB flash drive formatted as a FAT partition, a 1 GB and 2 GB compact flash and a 2 GB SD card that can be used to run under MS-DOS/Windows 95.
I suspect reading from a FAT32 host would be much easier to implement

Re: Physical disk as Pcem hard disk?

I second this request. It would make file transfer between host and guest a lot easier, but I guess it would demand heavy programing because Windows 9x would have to read a NTFS partition on the host side, something not possible I think

Re: Expanded Memory Boards for 8088/8086 machines?

Bank-switching. The board has (perhaps) 2Mb of memory divided into pages of 16k. 64k of the 8086's address space is used for a 'page frame' (usually above 0xC0000). Writing to registers on the board selects which four 16k pages appear in the frame and are visible to the 8086. Thank you JohnElliott,...

That why I said in my first post, if the 808x can only address 1 MB how do these boards work?

I did't read that link yet, but I understand the 808x processors can't address more than 1mb of memory
Do you want the 384kb remaining?

Re: IBM PS/2

For those who want to test the model 50, you need to create the "i8550021" folder inside "roms" and there you'll need to place one or both of these files:
90x7423.zm14
