May be I am just dumb but I have problems with dosemu. I have tried it with 7.2 and now with 7.3 but I do not understand how to run my dos programs else then copying them to my home directory. My Dos programs are on /dev/hda1 and are found under /DrDos. Dosemu or xdosemu are running but I have no idea how to go to their in dosemu. I have read the howto the readme the faq but seem to miss the part where it tells me how to get to an mounted or unmounted drive. Somebody with some hand on knowledge?

Hello Once you have installed and started DOSEMU, it should prompt you for private DOSEMU folder/directory, and it defaults to $HOME/dosemu. Each user will or should have his own private dosemu folder. Now, once that is done, change to cd ~/dosemu/drives and make a following link: ln -s /DrDos d Now /DrDos will appear as drive D: under dosemu. Note, that it is important to use umask=000 in fstab for you /dev/hda1 in order to anyone have right to read, write and access that DOS partition. umask goes to the same place as where "defaults,user" and the likes are. If you are not familiar setting up fstab with umask, don't hesitate to ask for more accurate instructions. Cheers, --jq
