Click the Next button to move though the various steps of the wizard. The wizard enables you to configure the basic details of the virtual machine. On the VM Name and OS Type step, enter a descriptive name for the virtual machine in the Name field and select the operating system and version that you are going to install from the drop-down lists, as shown in. It is important to select the correct operating system and version as this determines the default settings for VirtualBox uses for the virtual machine. You can change the settings later after you have created the virtual machine.
To have VirtualBox attach an ISO, select the virtual machine in the main menu in VirtualBox and click the 'Settings' button. Click the 'Storage' tab in the Settings menu. You should see an image of a disc and the word 'Empty' under 'Controller: IDE' in the Storage menu. DMG is Mac OS X native disk image format while virtual machines (VmWare, Parallels or VirtualBox) are able to mount ISO images only. With AnyToISO program you can convert DMG to ISO and mount the resulting ISO image to your virtual machine (running Mac OS X).
On the following steps, select VDI (VirtualBox Disk Image) as the file type, Dynamically allocated as the storage details, and accept the defaults for the virtual disk file location and size, and then click Create to create the virtual disk. When the virtual disk is created, the Virtual Disk Creation Wizard is closed and you are returned to the Summary step of the New Virtual Machine Wizard. Click Create to create the virtual machine.
The wizard is closed and the newly-created virtual machine is listed in Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager, as shown in. Click OK to apply the storage settings. The Settings window is closed. If you connected the virtual machine's CD/DVD drive to the host's physical CD/DVD drive, insert the installation media in the host's CD/DVD drive now. You are now ready to start the virtual machine and install the operating system. In Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager, select the virtual machine and click the Start button in the toolbar.
A new window is displayed, which shows the virtual machine booting up. Depending on the operating system and the configuration of the virtual machine, VirtualBox might display some warnings first. It is safe to ignore these warnings.

The virtual machine should boot from the installation media, as shown in. You can now perform all your normal steps for installing the operating system. Be sure to make a note of the user name and password of the administrator user account you create in the virtual machine, which you will need in order to log in to the virtual machine. Do not join the virtual machine to a Windows domain (it can be a member of a workgroup) as the domain configuration is performed later.
The virtual machine might reboot several times during the installation. When the installation is complete, you might also want to let Windows Update to install any updates. Next, you need to install the VirtualBox Guest Additions, as described in.
VirtualBox is a virtual machine manager created by Sun Microsystems (purchased by Oracle). Users create virtual machines using VirtualBox.
On each virtual machine, you can install any operating system that runs on the x86 processor architecture. In particular, you can install DOS 6.22. DOS 6.22 is a legacy, proprietary operating system released by Microsoft in 1994. For that purpose, you can use an ISO file with the contents of the DOS 6.22 distribution CD; you will need a software license from Microsoft to acquire such an ISO file.
