hi there,
i have a plextor scsi cdrom, /dev/sr0.
how do i get it to work under dosemu? there appears to be no mscdex.exe
on my system (i'm using freedos).
would i really refer to the drive as sg0 (as dosemu.conf says) as
opposed to sr0?
thanks!

I am having problems accessing DOSEMU to run it. A technician set it
up on my machine for me, but I cannot get it to run. Here is what I
get:
DOSEMU will run on _this_ terminal.
To exit you need to execute 'exitemu' from within DOS,
because Ctrl-C and 'exit' won't work!
Hint: if
in /etc/dosemu/dosemu.conf:
$_aspi = sr0:CD-ROM
in /usr/lib/freedos/config.sys:
devicehigh=c:\dosemu\cdrom.sys
in /usr/lib/freedos/autoexec.bat:
mscdex /d:mscd0001 /l:E
here's the problem. freedos doesn't provide mscdex. i saw a reference
to something called fdcdex, but
i'm a newbie myself. but i'll try to help.
first, the group of gopher is certainly wrong. the user of 500
means that there's no user with a uid of 500. you probably just want to
change everything to root.root.
about the permission problem. it happens really early on. what is the

hahahaha! I think your technician was new to computers too. Who is
gopher anyways? if it is you then you then you may need to take a look
at the /etc/dosemu.users. The quick way for you might just be to su to
root and run it. He probably just set it up and tested it as root.

why don;t you just use a real version of dos? they only include freedos
so that there's something to boot from in the first place. If you don't
know how to do this, look at the relevant part of this page for
instructions. http://solarflow.dyndns.org/pcplus
