You can download it from here: PortableOS - Softpedia

does not work either, since it contains simply a link to the www.coolsksoft.org server which is also here in CH not found on avaiable DNS.
Recomend some more reasonable server for that, this one definitely causes problems.

cannot create hd
at the moment i try creating a hd , some options flashby , and says harddisk created
however when i try to start from it it says the the file doesnt exist
both from c:/ and my usb drive
1) check if in PortableOS
1) check if in PortableOS directory is "hdb.img" file
If yes, read point 2
If no, Can you post image with error?
2) If you create HDD you cannot boot from it because there's no OS, so you must install OS on HDD.
But if you only want to start OS,that is in PortableOS database, you don't need virtual HDD.

I've run into some errors. At first I had problems with GParted(GUI was crashing).
After a while I managed to format my 512MB virtual HD to FAT32 with GParted though, so no worries. Today I managed to install a micro Windows XP(its only 200MB installed), and I had to turn off kqemu, otherwise I got a bluescreen before I could choose the disk to install to. After the install qemu couldn't boot XP, and when I quit qemu I got this in the CMD-window:

Now I can't boot Windows XP. kqemu don't find the hard drive.
...Did some experimenting before posting, and formatting with XP's built in formater (the one that appears before copying file) managed to make it work.
I guess that the QEMU error is still there though, since I turned off kqemu with the .ini file.
A little options UI would be nice also, even though it only contains one thing right now..
