There all kind of problems with the 2.3.43 kernel that appear to be related to bugs in the FAT of VFAT file system. The contents of some batch files appear to be all nulls for both native Linux and dosemu access. It is hardly surprising that such files do not execute. I have dosemu set up to use the Windows 98 operating system (in command mode). I have tested dosemu with Telix 3.22 (a DOS communications program, Online Express (an off-line BBS mail program), and YARN (a set of programs for off-line processing of usenet newsgroups). All of the above programs work with no problems when running xdos with kernel 2.3.40. They also work when running dos in an xterm window. I have my text video set up with a high-resolution frame buffer. dos either crashes when attempting to use the frame buffer or some applications (such as the Windows edit command) crash after dos has started. The frame buffer resolution varied during these tests. I could send error messages generated by these crashes, but I do not want to encourage anyone to spend time fixing this problem. Running dos in a frame-buffer console is really of no interest to me. I just ran the tests as a matter of curiosity. Thanks to Hans Lerman for making these fixes.
