I haven't had this problem with XOSL before I tried to install XOSL on this old Compaq PC. The install program sees the keyboard OK. So I get XOSL installed...
... Doc Chiron here: Lots of help is available. Start by using the search box on any XOSL group page for: KEYBOARD There is a lot of helpful stuff there. This...
I have been installing (& uninstalling) XOSL on a W98 computer, I resized the primary partition, and created a partition with the remaining space. The second...

... Hi Pancho, Greetings from Australia! 3:21 in the AM Friday 05 May 2006. Simplest way is to create a logical partition of minimum size create-able - i.e a...
... Hi All, Thanks to Norman Messing in Germany - I now have all the missing messages from October-November 2005. This subject is now closed. Thanks all. - ...
... Mike, could give a little more detail on this setup. I have a situation where I want to have four primary partitions bootable, none of them logical (just...
Thanks Doc. I did some experimenting and discovered the keyboard input problem goes away if I don't use a serial port mouse. When I use a PS/2 mouse then the...
... I've had exactly the same experience & setup and would also like to know why xosl won't work while gag will. Thinking back to what I did to "create" the...
Someone put XOSL on a semi-public PC and now we can't load Win98. Is there a backdoor password, an uninstaller, or another remedy to get back into it (fdisk...
Mark yeah, you got it - fdisk /mbr will blow it right away. Some of XOSL is on a partition somewhere but that shouldn't interfere with booting windows 98 once...

Mig I haven't got a SATA drive and there does seem to be a lot of rumours floating on the Web about how XOSL does not work with large SATA drives. Though it's...
MiG I'm running an AMD64 with two S-ATA HDD's. Drive 1 = 120GB, Drive 2 = 300GB. XOSL works fine. Had five OS's at one time, all OK. XOLS is in a 150MB DOS...
I agree with the general gist of recent mails - there is probably some little detail preventing xosl working. If we can just find it .. Just to document some...
Is this even a possible combination? I am fervently awaiting the day that Apple wakes up and makes OSX available to more than it's closed platform, and want...
I'd say no. AFAIK, the EFI-style BIOS used in osx-86 macs wouldn't load it... --Nick -- owner, elgatodesigns_co wakarimasu@... http://elgatodesigns.net/...

First of all, I'm trying to figure out why you're doing this, because dual booting on a server is not exactly the greatest thing to do. which is why I suspect...
XOSL should work with "any Operating System" , however my experience has been to put XOSL on the 1st Partition hide it and then put what ever else you need to...
