As I reported to the list quite a while ago, I had to run an accounting
package in a 32 bit machine because I could not get it to work in a 64
bit, both running fedora linux, and both on AMD hardware.
I have migrated the 32 bit machine to ubuntu 12.04 (precise) and
installed the standard dosemu package. I now have the same error crash
when I try to start the accounting program:
Invalid Opcode at 99E3 1f9c 3216 181300DF 1813 7*0000
and the boot log:
Illegal op ff ff ff
cpu exception 0x06 err 0x00000000 cr2=00017e6d eip=000093e3
Sigkill while in vm86():1f9c:99e3
Note that the above is identical to errors that I get running on a 64
bit ubuntu machine.
I could post the entire boot log file if that would help. I really need
to get the accounting software to run under the ubuntu installation.
If there is a configuration tweak that I need to do, it's not obvious to
me. I could try the hundreds of variations in the configuration file,
but I would just be shooting in the dark.
I could also send the accounting software files if someone wants to try
play with it, but I am not going to post it to the discussion list.
Thanks to anyone who can help me with this.
Fred
