and it has an option to 'extract to', so I made the /dosemu directory,
and it seems like the installer would know what to do. And maybe in some distros, it does. Maybe it is a 'permissions' problem. which is one of the worst Linux annoyances for the single user desktop.
One of the things I love about dos is using a ramdrive to unzip new downloads, and 'install' them on the ramdisk. If they dont do what I want, DW lets me delete it all without a trace on my HD. Or better yet, RAR.EXE, which has an ansi scrollbar menu system way beyond tar or gzip.

Hi you hot solder hacker, please contact me next week for an "howto install dosemu" mail exchange... Basically, you have ~/.dosemu/dosemu-bindir (or similar) which must point to the directory where the binaries are, and you must of course have that directory in your path variable, too (or at least you should set an alias, something like alias dos='/foo/bar/xdosemu'Then, you also have to have some directory structure. For me, it is: ~/dosemu/conf/ has dosemu.conf ~/dosemu/freedos/ becomes C: in the xdosemu box (so you must have kernel.sys, command.com and the "commands" subdirectory of Dosemu in there or symlinked from there. Commands are things like "exitemu.com") ~/dosemu/bin/ has xdosemu, doedebug, dosemu.bin and the like the dosemu-bindir points to ~/dosemu/bin or ~/dosemu, I forgot ;-). Image files of drives (e.g. the one that I use for A:) are in either ~/dosemu/ or ~/dosemu/conf or ~/.dosemu/ or something, I forgot... Just ask me again next week, when I am back home.
