Looks like the readlink utility isn't as standard as I assumed it to be -- newer distributions have it in coreutils (standard), Debain has had it for a long time ind debianutils, but other distributions would only have it as part of teTeX. What distribution are you using? try to replace the line BOOT_DIR_PATH=`readlink $HOME/.dosemu/drives/c`/.. in the shell script named "dosemu" with the line BOOT_DIR_PATH=`dirname $0` I'll think about a better workaround.
