Hello.

Quoted 3 lines · J. Solomon Kostelnik

but they all report that I have no packet driver installed. I thought that putting $_netdev = "eth0" was supposed to install a packet driver linked to the Linux eth0 device--is that incorrect?

No, not correct.

Do I need to enable
other options in order to get this to work?

Yes. At least $_pktdriver must be enabled. Also it is necessary to give dosemu a root permissions (suid bit or start as root) in order the packet driver to work.
