I am trying to get a fat16 hd partition running on my second disk under
the dosemu 0.99.10.0(What came with RH 6.0). I am having trouble getting
it working. The Output is :
Linux DOS emulator 0.99.10.0 $Date: 99/02/26 $
Last configured at Wed Mar 31 15:05:43 EST 1999 on linux
This is work in progress.
Please test against a recent version before reporting bugs and problems.

DPMI-Server Version 0.9 installed
F1 DOS
Default: F1
Here is an fdisk /dev/hdb table
Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2341 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 129 2341 17775922+ 83 Linux
/dev/hdb2 65 128 514080 83 Linux
/dev/hdb3 1 64 514048+ 6 FAT16
I am trying to put it on hdb3(of course). I have formatted it with the
mtools mformat and have successfully mcopy'd a boot disk to it. I can do
an mdir h:(what I have in the mtools.conf as /dev/hdb3) and get the proper
listing
and here is the pertinent lines from my /etc/dosemu.conf
$_floppy_a ="atapi:/dev/hdd"
# or "fiveinch" or "atapi" or empty, if not
existing
# optionally the device may be appended such as
# "threeinch:/dev/fd0"
$_floppy_b = "" # dito for B:
$_hdimage = "/dev/hdb3 hdimage.first"
(though there should be 2 t's in ditto)
It runs with the $_hdimage as $_hdimage = "hdimage.first /dev/hdb3" but d:
is not available. I dunno, maybe I missed something in the docs.
Anyway, thanks for your help. I've been doing the Linux
thig for about a year, but I still have much to learn(And I'll enjoy doing
it)
