Subject: How to also Mount hdimage file at /
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2003 20:00:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031110200001.124ea5f0.tonyb@sysdev.org> (raw)

I made a mkfatimage16 file which works fine with
dosemu.  I have a need to let Windows (samba) to
mount the same via the network.

I can use mtools to see the file as drive m:
but I need to mount it under /dosc so that windows
can also write to it.

When the hdimage was a real dos partition mounted on /dosc,
I could use dosemu and windows would also see myhost://dosc

Does anyone know how I can mount the hdimage (now a file)
also as /dosc.  Also tried using the loop device: mount filname /mnt -t
msdos -o loop, but it complains about the file's format.


Thanks
TonyB
