Hello,
I can recommend a universal CDROM driver: VIDE-CDD.SYS 2.14 10:48:22 02/17/98, haven't tried newer found version 2.15 yet.
Look for VIDE-CDD.SYS: http://www.benq.co.uk/support/downloads/downloads.cfm/dtype/D/page/downloads... ftp://217.21.255.101/cd-rom/drivers/apicd214.exe ftp://ftp.bluefeathertech.com/computing/pccbbs/aptiva/VIDE-CDD.SYS http://www.mdgx.com/files/VIDE-CDD.ZIP http://reimagery.com/fsfd/bin/2001_archive_DOS_rlg/apicd214.exe
Also a good page: http://www.cybercomm.nl/~one2one/s2.html
Also a universal MSCDEX: SHCDEX 3.03 (SHCDX33E.COM), I'm using 3.03E http://johnson.tmfc.net/dos/shsucdx.html http://johnson.tmfc.net/dos/file/shcdx33e.zip
And to complete the chain: As a mouse driver I recommend: Cutemouse v1.9.1 alpha 1 (latest version makes problems!!) http://cutemouse.sourceforge.net/ http://cutemouse.sourceforge.net/download/cutemouse191.zip
Ramdisk: http://sourceforge.net/projects/srdisk/
All works well with QEMU/QEMU-KVM.
If you use other usefull programs please let us know them.
Hope it helps :-)
Ciao, Gerhard

My old W98SE box has died of a rough handling, but the HDD has survived the crash. For continuity of service and fun, I have chosen to try to use QEMU, with SeaBIOS. As a validation try, I have created an image of FreeDOS1.1 without any problem. Next I booted an image of the HDD. All is going fine, but the MS-DOS of W98SE is not able to access the installation CD of W98SE needed to adjust to the new hardware configuration because of the absence of a proper driver. SeaBIOS is able to access a CD drive. So my question is: Do you know if there exist some MS-DOS W98SE CD driver using the SeaBIOS CD service ?
Configuration: Asrock H77M+G840+8Go, Gentoo/Linux stable amd64 (x86_64) Gnome qemu-kvm-1.0.1
