Oregon Trail (DOSbox)
Oregon Trail runs using DOSbox
# Install dosbox
sudo apt-get install dosbox
# Make sure we have the Games directory
mkdir -p /home/chip/Games
cd /home/chip/Games
# Grab the Oregon Trail game files from
# https://www.abandonwaredos.com/abandonware-game.php?gid=1530
wget -O Oregon_Trail.zip <url to download file>
# Or alternatively download the zip on your PC, and FTP/SCP to the PocketCHIP
# Extract the zip to
cd <location of Oregon_Trail.zip>
unzip -d /home/chip/Games Oregon_Trail.zip
# Clean up archives
rm Oregon_Trail.zip
By default DOSbox will try to run Oregon Trail a bit larger than the PocketCHIP display, so let's fix that:
# Edit the dosbox config
nano ~/.dosbox/dosbox-0.74.conf
# Change the following lines:
windowresolution=480x272
output=overlay
