An image installation is good to get the feeling how Win32forth performs, and what you can do with it. Of course do not pretend it will work as in the real Windows installation... but the beneffit is you can download on any machine withot effort. it will run on a Mac , Linux , Xp , Win7, 8 10 or WinXX... and it will not afect anything on your computer ! So let´s start it.
FILE - Import Appliance , and select REACTOS
After importing is finished and the VM starts...
Any message for a net-driver TP-LINK that is not present, ignore, and let VirtualBox select your current adapter for
network connection, or if you do not want network, ignore this message.
This Virtual Machine is prepared for a sharing files folder (if you wish) , mine was set-up for C:\REACTOS-SHARED. For just
making a simple test drive on Win32forth , ignore this option is not necessary.
The same recommendation is valid for grahic driver installation, I am not using any graphic driver at all. Only the basic driver
is enough. Simply ignore the driver installation message. I have set up a blue background (as in the picture below) using a right-click
on the desktop and in "Properties", select background NONE or solid. This is all.
