I have RH 6.0 and am trying to get my floppy to work from dos. All it
does is lock up the machine so I have to reboot it to regain control.
my dosemu version is 0.99.10-5mdk which came with RH6.0

In the  /etc/dosemu.conf file, I set the line

$_floppy_a="threeinch:/dev/fd0"

as the comments in dosemu.conf suggest.  My floppy works fine in Linux
and I have unmounted it before trying to run dos.

when I type a:  or dir a: or anything with an a: in it, the machine
keyboard locks up so I have to do a re-boot to get control again.

It must be something simple, but I have read through every doc file and
HOWTO manual I can find and little is mentioned about the floppy drive
other than what I have done.

any help or ideas would be appreciated.

thanks
ken
