It's been a few years since I've run Linux. Just returned to it. On my Redhat 8 installation I have installed the latest stable version of dosemu (1.0.2.1), along with the version of FreeDOS that's on the same Stable Releases page at www.dosemu.org.

I find that FreeDOS loads and works fine with lredir. But certain DOS apps important to me won't load with it. So I tried using MS-DOS 6.22 instead, by creating an msdos directory under ~/mydos/dosemu, and then copying my MS-DOS files to that directory (~/mydos/dosemu/msdos). I then changed dosemu.conf to point to 'msdos' instead of 'freedos'. This fails to complete its bootup. I see it go through some of the autoexec.bat and then do it again for some reason, and then wait for me to forcefully terminate the terminal session. Any attempt to use lredir is met with my seeing only the 'l' (from 'lredir') on the screen, and then I must forcefully terminate the session.

The download didn't include Quick Start, which I remember from a few years ago helping me. Pointing me to relevant docs would be appreciated, if you think they might clear up this problem for me.
