I have run FreeDOS inside VirtualBox on Linux (Fedora 8 & 9) and didn't have the problems you mentioned. But I was just experimenting with it, not doing anything "real". When I boot FreeDOS inside Linux, I prefer to use DOSEmu. It's a very nice, lightweight DOS environment that works very well for running FreeDOS. I even run games there!! I've never had any problems with DOSEmu. And DOSEmu makes it very easy to access your Linux home directory by setting up your home as your DOSEmu "D" drive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
