86Box - Installing Windows 2.1 on 386
Since my channel name goes by the "386", why not I install Windows 2.1 386 version on 386 emulated hardware using 86Box?
I'm using a much older 386 Machine Board, which is in a form of a standard full size AT motherboard.
The video of installation is in real time. No speed ups and minimal cuts (mainly swapping floppy disks as I'm using a screen recorder, and recording on the 86Box emulator window).
