[LI] error while running dosemu as normal user
Hi folks,
If I try to run dosemu as normal user I get the following error :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[rajesh@rajesh] /etc$ xdos
Running unpriviledged in low feature mode
kernel CPU speed is 167049280 Hz
Running on CPU=586, FPU=1
^[[19~ERROR: can't open /dev/hda1 for read nor write: Permission denied (you should never see this message)
[rajesh@rajesh] /etc$ ~
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Even if I run /usr/bin/dos I get the same error message. My dosemu.users file
is as follows :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
default_lib_dir= /var/lib/dosemu
log_level= 0
root c_all # root is allowed to do all weird things
nobody nosuidroot guest # variable 'guest' is checked in /etc/dosemu.conf
# to allow only DEXE execution
guest nosuidroot guest # login guest treated as 'nobody'
# If you want to allow limited dosemu to all users, uncomment the line below
#all nosuidroot restricted # all other users have normal user restrictions
rajesh c_all # this line is added by me (rajesh is a normal user account)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have added the following line in dosemu.conf :
disk { partition "/dev/hda1" }
If I login as root dosemu runs fine. No problems.
How should I rectify the above problem ? Any hint or clue will be apreciated.
Thanks in advance.
