- hello,
-
- i am having a problem getting dosemu to work, i have SLS 98.p5
- /dev/hda2 is linux,
- i tried /dev/hda1 as formatted dos, unformatted dos, not there at all,
- which one is correct ?
-
- i do steps 1 - 5, step 6 produces the following output,
-
- EMULATE
- ISBLK
- dev : 200
- DISK /dev/fd0 removeable
- ISBLK
- dev : 201
- DISK /dev/fd1 removeable
- FLOPPY /dev/fd0 h=2, s=15, t=80

- > The file hdimage is mounted as drive C:
-
- does the dos cmd "mount hdimage as drive C:"
- i don't seem to see a drive C: or linux.exe after step 6
-
- once dosemu is running, what to do to run a dos program ?
-
- thanks,
