Subject: Bootable HD Image (File Locking Issues)
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 13:21:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <23fd749a0809181321pdfaf86au8b04f31d4897d52a@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I´ve read all the docs and they are confusing. What is the
straightforward way to make a 500mb disk image file that I can use as
the bootable c: drive?
The reason I ask is because I am running a DOS Clipper program. When
more than one user log in I get DOS Error 5. This seems to be a file
locking issue. It seems that dosemu cannot correctly translate a DOS
lock on the partial file to the Linux filesystem. I believe that
running from a disk image, instead of a folder, might correct the
problem. If not then its off to installing MS-DOS 6.22 and getting
network support to work... just like the program was originally
intended to run....
