After a discussion in a Synchronet support echo, I decided to give dosemu2
a look for my DOS-based BBS.
After using git to obtain the code for it and a couple of dependencies, and
apt installing a bunch of other dependencies, I have come to realize that
dosemu2 maybe only works on 64-bit machines?
It calls for fdpp, which is supposed to be the freedos-clone that dosemu2
uses. fdpp depends on at least one x86-64 package. Does dosemu2 only work with
fdpp and, if not, are the only benefits of running dosemu2 found when
also running fdpp?
Since I am trying to run 16 and 32 bit programs, as are most folks running bbses
and tryng to use dosemu2 to spawn doors, I am not real sure why a
"64-bit Freedos kernel" should be necessary or even beneficial.
