date and time at startup

date and time at startup

[Albert Cervera Areny]

Hi,
 I use debian and was using dosemu without any problems (in fact it was
great!) But since some days ago started asking me date and time at start
up.
 Once I fill in the data the c:\> symbol appears as C> instead of C:\> as
before.

 Does somebody know what is the problem here?

Thanks in advance!

You're missing config.sys and autoexec.bat (might have been accidentally
deleted). The brute force approach would be to re-install dosemu.

If the problem persists then please file a bug report to Debian's DOSEMU
maintainer.

Sorry! I realised this some after sending the email. As you said somehow I
deleted my autoexec.bat. Fortunately I had an autoexec.bat~ copy.

Thanks!
