I forgot to include the list:
Glad you got dosemu2 to run!
The standard installation indeed doesn't have all the typical utilities.
A script to install these is available through an extra package:

I don't think SDL will help you. There is also X11 mode with -X, but I
think the text modes help you most, -t is the regular terminal mode.

A contact built dosemu2 on debian and I installed it.
When I ran dosemu -dumb it came up and left me at the c: prompt. A tmp
directory on the hard disk in /home/jude/.dosemu/drive_c/ but no more
than that. edlin wasn't there among other expected utilities one would
find in dos.
I can live with that.
When I tried running without dumb though I got a boot.log.3 that was
over 1,000 lines long. radeon and dosemu2 don't get along all that
well. I was curious to find out what would happen with sdl and the sdl
package is on this debian instance. The deb packages are not in the
debian archive this was another debian user who had a slow day at work
and built this for me.
I'll try putting some dos utilities and programs in the drive_c
directory then find out if they can run on next boot into dosemu2.
More later as I figure it out.
