dosemu problems with floppy

Post by LANGER STEVEN » Thu, 09 Jan 1997 04:00:00



Have installed dosemu.60 (actually it came on the Red Hat
3.0 installation) and am having problems reading the floppy.

Get the following error;

ERROR: can't get floppy parameter of /dev/fd0 (Interrupted system call)
error exit: (5,0x0005) in_sigsegv: 0 ignore_segv: 0
Not a good day to die!!!!!

Now I'm booting off the C: drive and can access files on it
with no problem. dev/fd0 does exist and I can't mount it and
read it under linux with no problem.

Any helpful thoughts?

1. DOSEMU: Newbie question: can't lauch dosemu from dos floppy

: Hello,

: I've tried to run dosemu ( right out off the box) with
: # dos

: with a bootable/system DOS diskette and it gives me the following
:  
: ERROR: can't get floppy parameter of /dev/fd0 (Interrupted system call)
: error exit: (5,0x0005) in_sigsegv: 0 ignore_segv: 0

dosemu0.60 and Linux 2.0.x are incompatible. Get a newer dosemu from
tsx-11.mit.edu and its mirrors: pub/linux/ALPHA/dosemu/Development
