| Summary : The Linux DOS emulator
|
Description :
This package allows MS-DOS programs to be started in Linux. A virtual
machine (the DOS box) provides the necessary BIOS functions and emulates
most of the chip devices (e.g. timer, interrupt- and keyboard controler)
Documentation can be found in $RPM_DOC_DIR/dosemu and in the man
page, as well as in the sources.
If you wish to allow non-root users to run the emulator, you must
enter their names in the file \'/etc/dosemu.users\'. Even so, some DOS
programs will run only if DOSEMU was started by root. Please note as
well that you should only allow \'trusted users\' to use DOSEMU, as
it inherently permits hardware access that would otherwise be forbidden
to \'normal\' users. However, running a non-suid-root DOSEMU binary
(low feature) won\'t impact your system more than any other Linux application.
