Hello,
I'm trying to boot win98 under dosemu 1.0.2.1-8 from debian sid. I put
the diskette image under /var/lib/dosemu, set
$_vbootfloppy = "win98.img"
in dosemu.conf and run dosemu. It boots as expected if dosemu is run by
root, and otherwise fails with the following message:
Linux DOS emulator 1.0.2.1 $Date: 2001/10/13 $
Last configured at Sun Apr 28 14:06:33 EST 2002 on linux
Disk I/O error
Replace the disk, and then press any key
Pressing any key just causes the message to repeat. Dosemu exits after
retrying three times.
I have "all c_all" in dosemu.users. I've tried setting $_secure to ""
and "0" in dosemu.conf and making dosemu.bin suid root -- the same
result.
List archives and Google retrieve quite a few threads discussing similar
issues, but I couldn't figure out how I can solve that. I would
appreciate any help. Please cc to me, as I'm not subscribed.
Attached are relevant (IMHO, that is) snippets from -D+a and strace -f
outputs.
Thanks in advance,
Baurjan.
