DOSEMU:0.49 doesn't work, won't compile.

I tried posting to comp.os.linux.help but got no response. Sorry
to keep this channel open. It would seem that the dosemu0.49 should
run out of the box since the /etc/dosemu/config file is interpreted
at run time. Not so. After loading up diskimage I get a never ending
sequence of:

SYSCALL ERROR:38 function not implemented in file mutex.c
expr=semop(sem,semoa,1)
line 52 or 79.

I tried several tweaks of the config file and I do get the time/date
prompt but it ends there.

When I do compile dosemu0.49 by: make config, make dep, make install
I get an ld error since the lib ipc can't be found( this is SLS 1.03, the
latest on tsx-11). I read an earlier post that I should just drop the
-lipc from the ld statement, and the make install goes through. However
the emulator then just hangs, as if it were waiting for input and never
sees the keyboard.

I got the earlier version of dosemu to run, but this one seems to be
a giant step backward. Any clues for the clueless?

This seems to say that your kernel doesn't have SYSV IPC support
compiled in.  What version of the kernel do you run?  I recommend
0.99pl12 *with* SYSV IPC enabled.

Uh, thank you for the confidence.  Good luck.

I also have ththe same problem.  My kernel is out of box SLS 1.03 p12.

BTW, I only can run dosemu oncnly once.  Now it never run.

I follows the dosemu FAQ exactttly, but it said:

BTESTING DOS_SYSCALL messages..
SYSCALL ERROR: 45, *Level 2 not synchronized* in file emu.c, line 235: expr=
        -1

What's the problem?

The FAQ?  I do hope you mean the manual.

Quote:>ERROR: IMAGE diskimage header lacks magic string - cannot autosense!

This rather cryptic message is telling you that your disk image
isn't of the correct format.  However, it looks like you're trying
to install a floppy disk image "diskimage" as a hard disk image,
because dosemu doesn't try to autosense geometry on a disk image.
Are you sure you're configuring it properly?  Please re-read the
appropriate sections in the manual.

1. DOSEMU 0.49 won't compile under SLS 1.03 ???

I wonder if someone could help me with compiling DOSEMU 0.49... I have had
it compiled before, and would like to do so again.  However, I have
removed the source tree from my first compile, leaving only the
executables.  Now I don't have a working makefile anymore.

I downloaded the sources from tsx-11 (or was is sunsite?  I forget) and
installed them, but when I have finished configuring it and try to
compile, it goes through all of the compiling up to the 'ld' command
(where I assume it links all of the *.o files together?  I'm not a C
programmer...), then it dies with the error message 'incorrect directory
for libipc' or some such.

Any suggestions?  I remember from the first time I compiled it that I got
this message, but I don't recall the procedure to fix it...  Something
about editing a line in the Makefile, I think.

Thanks in advance,
Rob
