Hmmm.  I'm running th following:

	bash: dpkg -l | grep dosemu
	ii  dosemu          0.66.7-2       The Linux DOS Emulator

and from DOSEMU:

	C:\> ver
	DR DOS Release 6.0
	Copyright (c) 1976,1982,1988,1990,1991 Digital Research Inc.
	All rights reserved.                                                           

and I have these redirected drives:

	C:\> lredir
	Current Drive Redirections:
	E: = LINUX\FS\var\lock\dosemu\ attrib = READ/WRITE
	F: = LINUX\FS\home\chuck\ attrib = READ/WRITE

I also have my partitions setup this way:

	bash: mount
	/dev/hda1 on /dos type umsdos (ro) 

and this is my /etc/dosemu/conf:

	bash: grep ^disk /etc/dosemu/conf
	disk { partition "/dev/hda1" }
	disk { image "/var/lib/dosemu/hdimage.first" }

and I'm booting from "C:"

	bash: grep ^boot /etc/dosemu/conf
	bootC
