if your computer reboots it must be a kernel problem. A non-suid-root program ran by a non-privileged user (dosemu 1.0.2.1 by default) should not be able to crash or reboot the computer. You could try watching "top": does it run out of memory? Or try a kernel without preempt patch, see if it makes a difference, and if it does, report it to the preempt patch maintainer (Robert Love) Bart - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
