Hi,
I screwed up. I was playing with dosemu and now I can't boot dos from
lilo or dosemu. The freedos hdimage works fine. To the best of my
recollection, here's what I did: I started by setting the hdimage
variable in the config file to /dev/hda1, my dos (Win95) partition.
When I ran dosemu, I got the "Starting Windows..." message then
dosemu froze, so I killed the process. I saw something in the docs
about pressing F4, F5, and F8 for a "dual boot" option. I didn't
really understand what this was but I did it anyway. This time I got
a dos prompt. Woohoo! Then I tried to run a program (one that I
later learned won't run under dosemu anyway, because it uses that ring
0 thingie). Either dosemu crashed or I killed it, I don't remember
which. That was the last time I was able to use my native dos. I can
still mount /dev/hda1 and see all the files.
I meddled with forces I didn't understand and I got burned. I would
be grateful If someone could help me resurrect my dos partition.
Thanks.
Sam
