I have several .IMG files, but they are different sizes which do not comform to any floppy disk format, i.e. not 1.44MB, 720K, 2.88MB... these .IMG files are like 420K, 832K, etc.
Additional info:
Winimage, rar, Magic ISO... none of these worked. The files I want to download are located in www.vetusware.com under DBMS>Oracle6. They are 2 files in rar format, but when I extract the rar's, I get forty-two .IMG files with varied sizes, not 1.44MB, etc. If anyone could please give it a try and succeed in mounting or reading the extractd IMG files, I would appreciate you letting me know how you achieved it, I really need this legacy Oracle 6/DOS version!..
IMPORTANT: I have DOS 6.22 running under Microsoft Virtual PC 2007. VPC07 can only mount IMG's which are only 1.44MB ot 720K.
