since we had problems with the freedos 1.0 cd making a working Freedos diectly with parallels, i installed ubuntu linux under parallels pretty easily usung the ubuntu alternate cd. i then used synaptic to get freedos for ubuntu. first time around xdosemu came up with a keyboard error - thanks to the instructions you all passed on to me last week i was able to open the dosemu config file and correct that. hopever i still get a number of other errors: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xdosemu ERROR: cpu exception in dosemu code outside of VM86()! trapno: 0x0e errorcode: 0x00000004 cr2: 0x468a5b2d eip: 0x468a5b2d esp: 0xbfb5ffb5 eflags: 0x00210282 cs: 0x0073 ds: 0x007b es: 0x007b ss: 0x007b Page fault: read instruction to linear address: 0x468a5b2d CPU was in user mode Exception was caused by non-available page ERROR: Fault handler re-entered! signal=11 _trapno=0xE ERROR: cpu exception in dosemu code outside of VM86()! trapno: 0x0e errorcode: 0x00000004 cr2: 0x468a5b23 eip: 0x0807d350 esp: 0x0840a2c0 eflags: 0x00210202 cs: 0x0073 ds: 0x007b es: 0x007b ss: 0x007b Page fault: read instruction to linear address: 0x468a5b23 CPU was in user mode Exception was caused by non-available page [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ are these primarily dos emu setup errors and i need to go to a dosemu list? i am going to try parallels again with the freedos cd but the problem i had with the setup was that it seemed unable to save the setup configuration so it could not boot from the parallels install. i will try again and take better notes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bonnie Dalzell, MA mail:5100 Hydes Rd ---- Hydes MD USA 21082-----EMAIL:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
