Some additional tests with dosemu-0.99.13.1 reveal a problem with the linux-2.2.14 kernel.
xdos crashes when run from my non-root account. A message is logged indicating that dosemu was started setuid-0. The setuid bit can be removed from the dox executable and xdos will not crash. However, there is a message about being unable to write the lock file for ttyS0, and there is no access to the ttyS1 (com 2) communications port. The log message reflects the different uid when starting dosemu.
The problem is strange because if doe not happen with the linux-2.3.40 kernel. It was not a problem with version 0.99.13 and the linux-2.2.14 kernel.
The FAT and VFAT file systems still are largely broken with the linux-2.3.44 kernel. I assume that this is a known problem that is being worked.
