* When installing Windows 98 or 98SE in DOSBox:
Use core=dynamic for a faster install.
For the first phase of the install, make sure
you set:
dynamic core cache block size=32
Let it install then reboot. Stop the emulation
before it starts booting again, and change it to:
dynamic core cache block size=1
For the rest of the install, leave it at that
setting.
The setup phase may show some invalid page fault
dialog boxes (for some reason). If you ack them,
Windows will make it through the install and
boot up properly.
Do not change the dynamic core cache block size
back to 32. Windows 98 will become unstable and
DOSBox will likely segfault at some point, usually
when opening the Control Panel.
