I'd guess from the K symbol go to the system or utilities menu and look for 'shell' or 'xterm' or 'term' or something like that. Once you have a command prompt (aka terminal window, command shell), if you have the DOS emulator installed you should be able to type 'dos' or 'xdos' to start up a copy of DOS or FreeDOS. If you haven't configured the DOS emulator you could first try 'su -' and enter root's password then try 'dos' or 'xdos'. -- ---<GRiP>--- Web: www.arcadia.au.com/gripz Answering Machine/fax: 02 4950 1194 (wait 5 mins if no answer) Mobile: 0408 686 201 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
