I havent used freedos much(twice) but using dosemu you create a symlink to
the dos partition. eg
cd /var/lib/dosemu/bootdir.first
ln -s /dev/hda1 whatever.you.want.here
Same works for cdroms. I have gotten dos running, allocated memory,
mounted partitions,cdroms(no floppy test yet) ran dos622 programs
but havent gotten a single game to work (yet). I myself am looking
for a list of games and tweaks to see if mine will work. My ultimate
goal is to shrink or reduce to win95/dos622 partition to very little.
Regards,
Henri
