Yes, but dosemu doesnt see the mounted partitions unless you set up the symbolic links before starting up dos. The documentation is self-admittedly not very helpful as they admit that they are programmers and not technical writers. I still have to figure out how to get the cd-rom to respond as a drive letter. The freedos hdimage is a default and to get around it I believe that you have to create your own hdimage. > the shrinking can be done with DiskDrake my Mandrake linux distro. > i remember seeing a list somewhere on what games etc did work on Oh I dont have a problem with the shrinking of the hd, I already converted 1/3 back to ext2 with fdisk/mkextfs. I have access to parted and PQMAgic. The main problem is getting the stuff to work under Linux/dosemu before I can recover those partitions.
