      On 12/26/14, Darryl Perry pondered and said...                DP> I don't know how many people out there have a Raspberry Pi, but I        DP> thought I'd put this out there.               Just got one for Christmas :-)               DP> I run Mystic BBS on my Raspberry Pi, and until now, I could not run dos        DP> doors. Most Sysops who run linux have to run dosemu to emulate dos. But        DP> dosemu has not been ported to run on the RPi yet. So, dosemu is not an        DP> option for RPi.              I've been running Mystic under Windows and have not attempted Linux (yet) but       wanted to give it a go with the Pi, so this is all helpful info thanks..               DP> But, I have discovered a new app called 8986tiny that is a dos emulator        DP> that runs freedos.... on the Raspberry Pi!        DP> If you run raspbian, you can simply do a 'apt-get install 8086tiny',        DP> then run it from anywhere as '8086tiny'        DP> I thought you would like to know. Enjoy!              Cool, thanks for sharing Darryl. I may yet pick your brains a bit (if that's       ok) as I try and set up a test system on the Pi.              Cheers, Paul                     `I'm not expendable, I'm not stupid, and I'm not going' - Kerr Avon, Blake's 7              --- Mystic BBS v1.10 A59 (Windows)        * Origin: Agency BBS | telnet://agency.bbs.geek.nz (3:770/100)    |
