Just curious, what do you need this for @Torinde?
I have just board an Arstech usb2isa-slot for a project at work. From my opinion it would be nice to use the upstream dosbox-x for running the dos software with ISA access, instead of using a custom build, even though it is supplied from Arstech.
+1. I'd like to be able to use old ISA bus Transputer cards with their corresponding DOS development tools, via the convenience of a modern networked system running Linux.
After March 1st, perhaps I could add a stub routine for you that is called for unassigned I/O or memory ranges. It would do nothing by default, but you could easily fill it in with something to route that I/O off to the whatever-to-ISA converter you are using. Would that help?
I too have recently picked up one of the ARStech usb2isa boards, however while it can 'detect' some ESS ISA sound cards I have to a limited degree, I can't seem to get sound coming out of them using their custom dosbox-x build. Even tried turning off sound emulation in case ports were being 'mapped out'. Maybe there's a mode required to allow direct port writes to pass through for what's usually used for audio?
What are the differences between ARStech DOSbox-X and the actual DOSbox-X? What did they change? Can you share some readme/instruction file? Or even better the source code of the adapted version?
