Problem with Longhorn Build 3706

Post by TheCharizard31 »

Hi everyone ! :D
I have a problem. When I try to install Longhorn build 3706 (I got the ISO from old-dos.ru), virtualbox won't take the ISO file on the virtual CD ROM. This is what I get :
Could not get the storage format of the medium 'cd directory' (VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED).
Can you help me ?

Thank you.

Your ISO file is corrupt or VirtualBox doesn't recognize the ISO (for some unknown reason). By the way, I've always found old-dos.ru a bit sketchy...

You should definitely apply for FTP access for this site. The archives are all legitimate and had been checksummed.

Thank you for your messages, but unfortunately, I don't have any unknown build that I can send the FTP Servor.

Or I can try to repair the ISO (but what method ?).

You don't necessarily need to submit a beta build. As written in the homepage, abandonware is also accepted here, so pretty much any retail application or game you may have on a floppy or a disc can be used to get FTP access :P

OK, now I'm ready to send a beta version of Pokemon Gold, but can you confirm me if allow (i searched for it on the database and I didn't find it)
It is where I have doubt of rules that can prohibit it : If it's a freeware game or application.

The software doesn't even to be an abandonware. They are put offline until they gain status as an abandonware.

Finally, I want to send a game called Adibou 2 (French), but unfortunately the servor upload don't work (I don't arrive to connect to it with FileZilla). Why ?

EDIT : I arrived to get it work, the setting Encryption was incorrect.

I didn't see your previous post correctly. If you do legitimately have a beta of Pokemon Gold, then it's accepted as well. The only issue is the FTP admin took down Nintendo-related archives for now. They are still accepted as contributions, but there's no timetable on when they might be put back online.

To resume, I decided to place on the FTP Server the video game Adibou 2 that I have, but in original FileZilla didn't want to connect to the upload servor. Later, I saw the Encyption setting wasn't correct. So I changed it and it work again.

The game is now on the FTP upload server, just wait for mrpijey answer.

Did you also clicked the link to apply for the access? This must be done as well.

Okay, that's great. If you read my earlier post, then you should know that you can also upload the beta version of Pokemon Gold.
