Dear syr,
Thank You very much for Yours answer.
I will explain You why i would like to experiment with Dosemu so much.
First of all, there are some computer manufacturers, who are developing 
recovery media, and user is able to reinstall Whoe operating system to 
The original state by using it.
I do not know, how to simulate The boot from The bootable CD or DVD from 
running Dosemu, i did not understand The command sintax for this operation.
Next isue is, if i will be able to emulate booting from boot media 
successfully, if i will not lost The opportunity to use Speakup screen 
reader hodkeys. If it will not work like i really restarted my computer 
or turning it on with special bootable CD in The DVD drive inserted.
Second reason is, that bootable recovery programs are not including 
screen reader, universal .sys driver for DOS, which would be able to 
access sound carts is rather dream than reality, and there are new 
computers without serial or parallel port.
And if i would want to have equal system administration possibility, i 
AM being forced to do such thinks.
Also to respect software laws.

So please, would You be so kind and would You send me a modified .conf 
file with The example how to enable harddrive direct access?
I will do it on my own responsibility and i will not try to install 
Windows98 or other systems by using dosemu, i would really like to only 
use harddrive repair tools and i will do it with empty harddrive without 
partitions.
If i will get some error messages from Dosemu or Linux kernel, i will 
give it up.

Thank You very much for Yours answer.
