Hello,
When I try to install Win 98/Win98SE, get a fatal error when trying to make the startup disk and also when I cancel the making.
Windows comes with the following error screen:
FATAL ERROR on SUWIN.EXE.
Anyone any idea?
thanks in advance

You might hook up the VM floppy drive to host a: or to an image... Not connecting it at all may give problems. Other than that: I dont recognize the problem...

@ghr: The floppy works well.
Get the Error when you are about to make or not the Startup Disk.
Already changed the driveletter of the CD/DVD station from R to E, but stille the same Error:
Application Error
SUWIN caused a General Protection Fault in module<unknown>047F:02CA
àI SUWIN will close
Till now I couldn't find this one, already found a lot of others regarding to SUWIN

I guess I've found the solution!
Copied Windows to the virtual C: drive and disabled the DVD drive and the floppy drive in Virtualbox.
The installation is running now!

Thanks! That (finally) worked for me too.
