I'm trying to run Dosemu on a Xen server from Linode.com and I'm getting a error on startup. The error is: ERROR: general protection at 0xffff0: ea kernel is: 2.6.18.8-linode16 dosemu: Version: 1.4.0+svn.1828-2+b1 (default for Lenny) I've attached boot.log Will dosemu run on Xen or should I pursue some other path like freedos on qemu? -- Randall Smith
