Apparently your first / previous run was with sudo. You can simply change boot.log etc. back into your OWN ownership to fix the issue: cd /home/robert/.dosemu ; sudo chown -R robert tmp/ run/ boot.log If you do not run dosemu with sudo again, this step should only be needed once. You might also want to do this with drives/ but as I do not know what sorts of files you have there, it is up to you to decide whether you want to have full access to them as robert or whether you only want to give root full access...
