1 month ago It seems DOSBOX expects the boot floppy image to be a valid FAT image which makes no sense because a disk is just a bunch of sectors and you can have arbitrary code and data in there... Our boot sector is custom and loads the kernel directly from the image, so obviously that won't work if it expects a FAT12 file system.
Please try to boot from dosflop.img with the ISO loaded, maybe that works?

Their official guide, method 1, cuz it's supposed to be bootable lol won't work,
imgmount A -bootcd D* won't work, saying it cannot create a drive from the file.DOSBOX-X is using floppy emulation boot, as it does not support otherwise AFAIK.
*D:\dosflop.img / any other .img file in the ISO.
