I'm moving to a 64-bit system (Debian stable). The Dosemu website speaks about 64-bit ports since at least V 1.4.X, I have downloaded those binaries (with instructions that make no mention of any special 64-bit considerations or issues), but have been unable to get them to work and I wonder if they are 64-bit aware, It is also notable that debian currently does not seem to offer a dosemu package. Am I on the wrong track? There was talk of a V2 in about 2013. Was that a fork, and should I be using it perhaps? Yet the original dosemu site persists, still with 2007 information, and no indication that it is not still relevant. All of this makes me wonder if this (sadly) is a dead end.
Just to clarify: V2 was intended to be a completely independent project, that's why the dosemu site does not mention it. The amount of rewritten code and new features was initially very large (you can see the diffstats yourself), plus a different license. But right now I don't have a lot of free time for it, so at this point of time we can call it a development fork of dosemu1, diminishing its original goals. :) In any case, you can try it out and report bugs, but its a development code, a bit far from any release yet. Just hope it will suit your needs and we try to keep the amount of regressions from dosemu1 at minimum where possible. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
