This is an old Fedora-3 installation that I have mangled up and use it as a sandbox to learn the inner workings of linux. I have managed to compile the programs I need and while doing so I learned a lot. Now the specifics: 2.6.20 kernel on i686, AMD machine with nvidia graphics. When I did ./configure it went OK, no warnings or errors. Compiled also without problem. It is a challange for me to figure out, with some help, why it is not booting up into the virtual dos window. By the way, "dos" is also and old thing, but I still have some favorite applications (not games) that I would like to use from within my linux. I do have a modern installation as well, xubuntu 12.04, kept current. There I use dosbox installed the easy way, directly from distro. This is my story...
