dosbox installs OK, and runs, but some of the commands, including the included MOUNT.COM command, which is supposed to allow mounting of a linux dir as a DOS drive (C:\ or whatever) don't seem to work properly. It returns to the dosbox command prompt without error, but then switching to the drive that was supposed to be newly mounted (C:) simply spits out a "Drive C does not exist" error. The included MEM.COM, which is supposed to display the amount of dosbox memory free, also just returns without printing anything. I know it sees them as commands because entering a non-existent command returns an error, while those simply return nothing. It's kinda hard to check functionality much further, as without mount working, I see no way to actually introduce a complex directory structure and test external commands. Also.. Is it better posting such things here, or on the regular Cooker list? Per Øyvind Karlsen is the contributor/packager in this case, in all the changelog entries, but also knowing about the general case would be useful. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
