Hi Team, I am new to XDK community. I am trying to install XDK workbench on my mac (OS: Catalina 10.15.4) It Seems like the unzipped installer file is not working. Anyone facing the same issue? Is there any fix from Bosch? Thanks in advance Regards, Rashmi. Download macOS Catalina for an all‑new entertainment experience.

Bosch's Damnation is a point and click adventure game with classic gameplay where you will find yourself in one of Carol Reed's most interesting cases. Malte Stierngranat, the Swedish engineer.
Bochs (pronounced 'box') is a portable IA-32 and x86-64IBM PC compatibleemulator and debugger mostly written in C++ and distributed as free software under the GNU Lesser General Public License. It supports emulation of the processor(s) (including protected mode), memory, disks, display, Ethernet, BIOS and common hardware peripherals of PCs.
Many guestoperating systems can be run using the emulator including DOS, several versions of Microsoft Windows, BSDs, Linux, Xenix and Rhapsody (precursor of Mac OS X). Bochs runs on many host operating systems, including Android, Linux, macOS, PlayStation 2, Windows, and Windows Mobile.
Bochs is mostly used for operating system development (when an emulated operating system crashes, it does not crash the host operating system, so the emulated OS can be debugged) and to run other guest operating systems inside already running host operating systems. It can also be used to run older software—such as PC games—which will not run on non-compatible, or too fast computers.
History[edit]
Bochs started as a program with a commercial license, at the price of US$25, for use as-is. If a user needed to link it to other software, that user would have to negotiate a special license. That changed on 22 March 2000, when Mandrakesoft (now Mandriva) bought Bochs from lead developer Kevin Lawton and released it for Linux under the GNU Lesser General Public License.[1]
Use[edit]
Nightmares! mac os. Bochs emulates the hardware needed by PC operating systems, including hard drives, CD drives, and floppy drives. It doesn't utilize any host CPU virtualization features, therefore is slower than most virtualization (as opposed to emulation) software. It provides additional security by completely isolating the guest OS from the hardware. Bochs also has extensive debugging features. It is widely used for OS development, as it removes the need for constant system restarts (to test code).
BFE, described as a 'Graphical Debugger Interface for the Bochs PC Emulator', is a graphical interface for the debugger within the Bochs PC emulator that makes it possible to debug software step-by-step at the instruction and register level, much like Borland's Turbo Debugger.[5]

General
Mac Os Mojave
Cost/License | Method | Debugging | Configuration | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Bochs | Free / LGPL | Full emulation (slow) | Yes, built-in | Command line, script file, interactive menus |
QEMU | Free / GPL | Emulation/dynamic translation | Yes, via GDB stub | Command line (optional GUI) |
VirtualBox | Free / mixed | Virtualization | Yes, built-in | GUI, command line (optional) |
Microsoft Virtual PC | Free | Virtualization (on PC), Emulation (on Mac) | No | GUI, command line (optional) |
VMWare Virtual Server 2 | Free | Virtualization | Yes, via GDB stub | Web interface, non-free Windows client (VI3) |
Microsoft Hyper-V | Free | Virtualization, Emulation on legacy devices | Yes, via WinDBG | GUI, command line (PowerShell) |
Overall, VirtualBox offers the richest set of features, along with very fast performance. Bochs is by far the slowest, but that is because of its full emulation, which gives it the highest accuracy.
None of them are necessarily 'better' than the others. This comparison is just to point out their differences. It can't hurt to use more than one emulator (or several), in order to test your OS on a variety of platforms without using real hardware.

Supported Disk Image Formats
This chart shows the file formats for an emulated hard disk. The emulators usually support only a flat image for a floppy and an ISO image file for CD-ROMs.
Flat | Concatenated | Sparse/Stackable | Journaling | Growing | VMWare format | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bochs | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
QEMU | Yes | No | Yes | No | No | Yes |
VirtualBox | Yes | No | No | No | Yes | Yes |
Microsoft Virtual PC | Yes | No | Yes | No | Yes | No |
- A flat image offers no special features and takes up the full amount of disk space that it emulates.
- The concatenated format allows several separate files to emulate one combined hard disk; useful for partitions.
- A sparse image does not store blank space, so you could emulate a 1 GB hard disk, but it would only take up 200 MB of space if it had 800 MB free space.
- Stackable images allow a 'base' read-only image. Any changes are stored in a new image that is layered on top. Useful if you want to remove any changes to a 'good' disk.
- Journaling images keep track of changes made by each session, and they can be undone/redone in order.
- Growing images are similar to sparse images. They start small when the emulated disk is empty and expand as more data is written.
- Apparently, the VMWare format for disks is popular because several emulators support it.
