Still not working for me...

Try uploading to mediafire.com.

Server not found

Firefox can't find the server at www.coolsksoft.org.

* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

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.

but its not in PortableApps.com Format.

I'm not sure if you've seen this but...
https://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format

If you want it to be distributed here, you have to have it in that format.

*downloaded it but I'm still clearing some space on my flash drive so I can download an actual OS*

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.

Hi, ... With = QEMU on

Hi, ...

With = QEMU on Windows Ver 0.12.2 (1/20/2010)

It cant go over "1112 Meg, of Memory".

Even with 3 Gig Ram or 8 Gig Ram.

Tested with = [QEMU on Windows Ver 0.12.2 (1/20/2010)], [2500 Meg, of Memory available].
qemu.exe -L . -m 1112 -hda linux.img -localtime -M pc

Please, just use 1024 Meg. max, in your software.

I will search in the Internet, of why it cant go over [1112 meg].

I've run into some errors. At

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:

+----------------------------------------+

Host OS: 32-bit

MicroXP is now running,

Qemu .... [ ERROR ]
QEMU ERROR: Could not open '\\.\kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activat
ed: 2

Press to continue

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..

how do I get Google Chrome OS?

I tried putting the download link, but it doesn't work. It says "error 404: forbidden"

Its a .vdmk image and I don't know how to make it work under PortableOS.

By the way, I liked "PortableOS" better than "OSLauncherPortable." PortableOS rolls off the tongue, but OSLauncherPortable kinda sticks to it.

Did it's normal than inside your software = OSLauncherPortable and all OS and QEMU x64, use in total only 1 cpu?

Then how to enable using, with your software, 2 Cpu, 3 Cpu, ... ?

Have you considered creating a GUI for this app? I think that would make the average user a bit more comfortable using it.

What type of Gui ?

At my side no need, of gui.

P.S. User(s) of this software, only have to use "Digit nbr." and the key "Enter".

Let's make a GUI version

I really like this app, and I'd like to see it move further (perhaps into an official release someday).

Are you interested in working together to develop a GUI interface for PortableOS? I was going to work on it on my own, but frankly I haven't been able to work with QEMU as well as you have done here.

A Handful of Questions

I feel like I might just be missing something obvious, but the OS I used didn't save its data (installed chromium, reopened to find no chromium). I used Tiny Core.
A) Is it possible to save data and
B) How?
Thanks.
