I run FreeDOS under DOSEmu, and that makes it dead simple to share files between Linux (the host OS) and FreeDOS (guest OS). My C: drive is already mapped to a directory in my Linux $HOME. In $HOME/.dosemu/drives, my "c" is a symlink to my $HOME/freedos/1.0-base/ directory. You can guess what version of FreeDOS I have installed there. :-) Any files that FreeDOS writes to the "disk" is just a file in my $HOME/freedos/1.0-base/ directory. From Linux, I just go there to pick up the file. Makes it easy to drop off files (like the E Editor ... see other email) to experiment with in FreeDOS. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
