It does, thank you. I've thought about that, but was not sure whether that was indended behaviour for bootoff. In fact, when I start dosemu with your patch, it boots from vbootfloppy even after "chmod 0 /dev/fd0"; however, for some reason, dosemu disables a: after booting, which results in "Current drive is no longer valid>" prompt (I don't use bootoff), which is kind of unexpected -- all I needed floppy for was doing "sys c:" and copying a couple of files to c:.
