I have a program that works near-perfect under DOSEmu. But it will "hang" when doing two different, distinct operations -- and it starts eating up CPU time. It, of course, doesn't hang under "real" DOS, so it's gotta be some sort of DOSEmu setting. No file corruption occurs, DOSEmu just hangs before it corrupts anything (thank God). For the most part, this setup is working _better_ than I anticipated (long story), and it is _far_more_reliable_ to run it under multiple DOSEmu instances on a single machine, than to SMB share out to Windows systems (yes, even with Oplocks disabled, again, long story). [ BTW, the lock happens even when there is only one instance running -- whenever I try to do those 2 specific things. ]
Questions: 1. I'm having a bit of difficulty trying to figure out how to enable debugging. I've done a bit of RTFM, but I can't figure it out (yeah, bad excuse ;-). Anyone got a 1-to-2 "liner" on a typical set of settings to use to dump out everything? 2. I'm suspecting it is a file access issue. I'm "booting" a directory where it runs io.sys directly, etc..., so ledir and VFS is used. I've tried using both a EXT2 and MSDOS (not VFAT) mounted as /var/lib/dosemu/drdos703 (or msdos622) directory (which are my boot directories, depending on which one I'm running), which makes no difference. I understand you can also "boot" a non-mounted, "native/real" C: partition too. If so, can I run multiple instances of DOSEmu, or am I limited to only 1 now since I'm booting a real partition? Thanx ... sorry for the "generic" stuff here, but I'll post more info when I get some hard debugging info. -- Bryan -- They "sell" software "like a book" so they can sell it en masse without a written agreement.
