Well, that is not entirely the case apparently with dosemu 1.0.0
As root I can run and access mounted partitions under dosemu
including symlinks to the C: drive, the CDROM drive letter f: (my choice)
As non-root I can access the CDROM drive off of a symlink but not a
drive letter(permissions problem). I am not running free dos or xdos right now until I
figure out the basics. My problem seems to be more along the lines
of that I cant run anything except dos622.
And of course I can access symlinked partitions that are mounted as
non-root. I tried to umount stuff but it didnt work, I suspect some
of my run failures are permissions linked since all the windows/dos
partitions are owned by root and I dont know that you can alter
ownership.
I am still looking for a list of games/tweaks to run under dosemu.
Thanks,
Henri
