The issue is that your system doesn’t detect the virtual drive. fdisk isn’t finding anything. You’ve already set up a compatible DOS version (6.22). Thank you for reaching out!

I meant the virtual drive refers to using DOSBox, VirtualBox, or QEMU with an image. If you followed what I understand, you might need to configure the drive size and partition table (fat or fat 32) under the mount point. The folder itself isn't enough—you need to set those technical details.

You successfully completed the task. However, you also needed to run DOS 7.10 with Windows 98 SE. The installation of DX8 and DX9 is still causing issues.

This could be relevant for direct X on Windows series. Your system requirements might affect performance based on specs. You might want to explore Bochs QEMU Virtual Box as an alternative. If you're considering Windows 98SE, read the extra details before downloading. Don’t hesitate to try and face any outcomes.

I'm working on an ARM device using Android. Thanks for the helpful links. It's odd that DX7 sets up easily while DX8 and DX9 don't. Games like Half-Life and Age of Empires II run smoothly, but the others have installation issues.

Trying QEMU ARM might resolve the issue—host build could work.

You're right about the CPU specs. Based on those sources, you'll likely need a processor with a clock speed of about 120–233 MHz for DirectX 9 to function properly. The graphics card requirements are less certain.

I suggest you give dosbox-x a shot—it has much better documentation.

I'm not sure if an Android release exists. I couldn't locate any mention of "DoxBox-X for Android."
