Default MERGE under root, no GUI



Hi Folks,

Any of you had any success running DOS in 5.0.7.

My goal is to have DOS access under root.

This worked fine under 5.0.6. as we have no choice,
DOS access under root is a must for our work situation.

- 5.0.7. Installed without a glitch (GUI not installed)
- Maintenance Pack 1 installed without a glitch
- Maintenance Upgrade 1 did not seem to install anything (does not
appear in Software Manager)
- Merge 5.3 installed without a glitch
- dosinstall is bugged ( I hope )

When I try to dosinstall, using option 1 (ms-dos 6/7) then
number of floppies (3) I get the following message:

Unknown systemtype sco32

I tried to trace the origins of the "sco32" value within
"dosinstall" script, but gave up.

The dosinstall script has provisions for the "sco" value
and not "sco32" value.

I am at an impass.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Marc Champagne
