Files in ~/drive_c not visible

Formerly I ran dosemu version 1.3.3 in Slackware and Kubuntu Dapper Drake, but now I'm running version 1.2.2 under Kubuntu Feisty Fawn.

Under the 1.3.3 system, I had files and various soft links to files and directories in the directory ~/.dosemu/drive_c. My files would appear in c:\. This was also the same in an earlier version of dosemu, 1.0 something I think.

Under the new system 1.2.2, I have the same files and symlinks in drive_c which I copied over from the old Dapper system. They are visible in linux but not in dosemu.

Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

I found and fixed the problem.

In .dosemurc I had the line
$_hdimage = "freedos:ro"

Commenting out the above line and inserting the line below fixed the problem completely. My beloved 4dos is back! $_hdimage = "drives/*"

Sorry for the bandwidth.
