Hi all,
I created a PlayOnLinux script to install Starflight 1 & 2 on Linux:
http://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-8331.html
There's not much to it actually, I can just mention that the shortcuts created use native dosbox (that you should install beforehand, tested with 0.74) if present.
I'm setting default mode to "windowed" rather than "full screen", and set scaler to "hq2x" instead of "normal2x", as they're better defaults in my opinion. GoG Graphic mode setup is available anyway as a "configurator" for the game anyway, so you're not stuck with the defaults.
Remark that I haven't asked for a GPG signature yet, so the scripts will be considered "untrusted" .
Any feedback welcome, specially on PlayOnLinux forums: they seem to prefer people working on recent games, but I think that more scripts for good old games would really rock :)
