When I try to run doscmd-19960502 with an MS-DOS 6.2 boot diskette, I
get either:
% doscmd
doscmd: fatal error int16 func 0x1 only supported in X mode
or
% doscmd -X
/dev/vga: Permission denied
Exit 1
or, if I chown /dev/ttyv0 to me, I get:
% doscmd -X
mmap: Invalid argument
It looks as if the console_init() routine wants to be able to map the
console video? Does this only work with a pccons console?
