Please learn to use quote buttons / tags. Also, each post automatically adds a datestamp, so you don't need to do that.

To answer your question (I think?), I've just been to the bochs homepage and the CVS link is extremely easy to find.

Cheers,
Adam

Hi,

1. The Forum Rules (see point 3)
2. I don't know, I've always used the precompiled version of bochs, but you should know how to compile, many people do it every day and there is documentation available on the Bochs site.

Please do not continue and get this useful topic locked.

Cheers,
Adam

I am not exactly sure what you mean by helping with the project. If you mean help Bochs development, I doubt it since you weren't even able to find its CVS repo. The official Bochs website can be found here. You will find both the CVS repo there and information on how to get the source out of it and build it.

P.S. Bochs CVS snapshot could be downloaded from http://bochs.sourceforge.net/getcurrent.html page.
To compile it under MSVCPP you need to rename all .cc files to .cpp and update workspace files.
I don't have MSVCPP at my house so I hope somebody else will do it for us.
Or you could always use cygwin and build it locally "as-is".

[Test result]
1. Download Bochs CVS sources and follow your hints to built it the result is successfully.
But need to to:
a. Rename .cc files to .cpp
b. Manual added MSVC .dsp & .dsw & added the newly added .cpp files that different from Bochs v2.3.7 source.
c. Add 'display_library: win32, options="gui_debug" but not "display_library: win32, options="windebug"
in you bochsrc file.

2. Got the screensnapshot for you to reference, thank you.

Win98 on 4M RAM ? I am not sure it worked ever :)
Was you able to start Bochs release without debugger ?
If you want to help you with Bochs - write to Bochs forums on sf.net website.

1. Oh, my win98.img is only contain DOS in it and it can run no problem because I use it as debug only.
2. If I want to help with Bochs develop how do I should do for beginning to support to this project?
