Message-ID: <46752053.3040409@my.home> (raw)

After a fresh install of dosemu 1.4 (I used the Debian package)
there is a directory ~/.dosemu/drives which contains

lrwxrwxrwx 1 jws users   25 2007-06-17 10:54 c ->
/home/jws/.dosemu/drive_c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 jws users   23 2007-06-17 10:54 d ->
/usr/lib/dosemu/drive_z

(I suppose in the .rpm version the link "d" would point at
/usr/share/dosemu/drive_z).

What do these links do? After starting dosemu, the D: drive is
$HOME, not /usr/lib/dosemu/drive_z (which is Z:). It must be the
AUTOEXEC.BAT in ~/.dosemu/drive_c that does this, but why? And how
does it work?

Regards, Jan
