Try running under root. I've seen some permissions problems. Note very carefully your configuration. dosemu is particularly sensitive to what disks are configured, and how. The virtual hard drive can be an image file, a partition, or a directory. Floppies must be either a real floppy or an image. Directories apparently don't work. You _should_ have a symlink to your freedos installation from /var/lib/dosemu. > Anyone know how I can get dosemu to run freedos? > > Is there a way I can kill dosemu and get the prompt back if freedos > doesn't run? Thanks for any info. Kill the window directly, <ctrl>-C from the controlling terminal. I'm not aware of any magic key sequence to kill, though I seem to recall one for switching to another terminal if running in console mode. Peace. -- Karsten M.
