are you sure that you're not using Debian's dosemu script
(ie. /usr/bin/dosemu installed by Debian)? It does:
workdir=$(mktemp -u ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/dosemu.XXXXXX | tr A-Z a-z)
...
LOG=$workdir/boot.log
which explains what you get. If you use DOSEMU 1.1.x you should be using
the supplied dosemu script (which make install puts in /usr/local/bin/ by
default)
