LRedir?

LRedir?

[Vlad]

Hello fellow DOSEMu users,

	How do I read my Linux drives in DOSEMu? I have tried
lredir, but it does not work, because of some strange
syntax, /home does not work, and mount (like of
DOSBox) dos not work either. Does anyone know how?

	DOSEMu Users against War
	Today the president of the United States George Bush
has set a 48 hour deadline for Iraq.
	This means than on the 20th of March, war may be
declared. There will be many innocent lives lost in
this illegal war (in that no UN approval).
	The 20th of March will always be remembered as a dark
day, not just for America but for all DOSEMu users.

	Please write to your representatives and tell them to
avert war.

Yours sincerely,
	Vlad

well, the syntax is described in the docs:

   C:> lredir d: LINUX\FS/home

(RTFM)

well, this seems to be a lredir (aka 'Law Redirection') problem, too.
The syntax for this one (obviously) was:

   US:> lredir P: NEW\UN\CHARTA/private/gwb

('P:' being drive 'peace')

Note, however, that the operator of this DODEMU session
_did_ RTFM, else he would not have been able to do what he
did prior to the above one:

   US:> lredir P: ELECTION\RULES/private/gwb

('P:' being drive 'president')

no chance:-(

Once drive P: (aka peace) is lredir'ed to
a private place, all recovery links are cut off.

I've found a problem with lredir when the target linux dir is too
complicated - maybe too many characters, or, maybe too many folders deep
- I haven't tested enough to know.  Of course, this really isn't an
issue, I just map higher up and CD where I want and, I'm also using an
older version of DOSEmu - I'm really just sending this as a excuse to
state the following:

It's too late, the war is going to start and there isn't anything we can
do about it now, not really.  Those of us in America can be sure not to
vote conservative HAWKS into power again, but that's not likely to
happen because, excuse me, most of my fellow Americans are STUPID :)

Frontline on PBS had a very interesting report on last night, which
makes it almost obvious that Iraq was an issue long before Sept. 11 -
that was just the excuse to justify the war.  There are a group of nuts,
including some of the very top leaders, which were referred to as the
HAWKS, who want a change of foreign policy to include preemption - this
is public information, and has nothing to do with Sept. 11.

Thanks,

Davros

Re: LRedir? -- off-topic junk ...

First off, I hate this junk on a technical list.

Secondly, I'm registered NO PARTY and I do not subject myself to such blind
affliations.

Third, I'm amazed at the hypocracy of Bill Clinton who bypassed the UN on so
many conflicts, from Somalia to Kosovo.  The only difference is that those were
smaller conflicts, this is a bigger one.  Watch where you throw the term "War
Hawk" because it points at as many Democrats as Republicans.

Fourth, I like to look outside the US.  I have looked at papers from Japan to
Saudi Arabia, and anyone who acknowledges the reality of the situation, it is
the fault of Saddam Hussein and no one else.  Especially the Japanese, who have
a constitution forbidding war.

Fifth, even Hans Blix says that inspections are useless without the cooperation
of Iraq.  He has repeatedly stated that there is no way to "inspect compliance"
without 100% Iraqi cooperation, and that cooperation has been limited.

Lastly, to quote Democrat Senator Joeseph Bidden, "This is not pre-emption, it
is enforcement.  It is enforment of resolution 876 and the clarification of that
resolution in resolution 1441."

In a nutshell, the US finally said the ceasefire is over, after 12 years of
non-compliance to its terms.  Otherwise any future ceasefire will be a joke.

Care to explain what RTFM is an acronym for? :-)
Well actually I read the man pages and I couldn't find
it (it's in the readme). My gracious apologies.

Off-topic?
OK, I think I understand your views.
Hundreds of innocent civilians are dying as we speak.
But no "junk" on this list.

I see, however, that you have totally ignored the
lredir question and simply *added* to the war
argument.

Does this mean that all Americans are war hawks?

The Japanese have 40,000 US troops permanently
stationed in Okinawa. As for Middle East issues,
www.mideastfacts.com has been found by me to be of
great help.

Hans Blix has also said that the inspections need more
time, and progress is being made. Or should I say
_was_ being made.

That is the isolated view of an individual.
Resolution 678/687 was to remove Saddam from Kuwait,
an action the US initially was not disagreeable with.

Have you seen the US logic? It says: 1) if no weapons
of mass destruction are found, then Iraq has not made
a full and complete declaration (which is it's duty),
therefore it is a breach of the resolution 2) if
weapons of mass destruction are found it is a breach
of the resolution.

Serious consequences is not interchangeable with "all
means necessary". A resolution for war would never be
passed, as the US admitted.

3 permanent members of the UN Security Council did not
believe so. The majority of the UN Security Council
did not believe so. They asked for more time (30 days)
to let the peace process have a chance. Why do they
not allow to attempt peace? The only thing worse than
failure is the fear of trying something new. 

Thank you, good night and god bless America (and those
who defend her).
