To terminate it you have three choices: - type -C _here_ (not in the dosemu window) - type in the dosemu window - execute 'exitemu' at the DOS prompt Hint: if you want $HOME as DOS drive D:, then use the '-home' option Linux kernel 2.4.19; CPU speed is 1095353000 Hz Dosemu-1.1.4.0 Running on CPU=586, FPU=1 no console ERROR: IMAGE /home/dos/fdbootcd.iso header lacks magic string - cannot autosense! phrostie@llano:~$ Another problem i've been having is the -home option. it does not seem to be working. any help would be appreciated. -- Oh i've slipped the surly bonds of DOS and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/webpage/cad-linux
