Hello, after upgrading dosemu from *-r3 to *-r4, it seems to hang just before accessing the dos drives. I've tried kernel versions 4.12.5, 4.9.34 and 4.4.something, as i suspected the kernel first. Downgrading to *-r3 allows me to play my old dos games. Greetings from Germany, Tom ## emerge --info dosemu: Portage 2.3.6 (python 2.7.12-final-0, default/linux/x86/13.0, gcc-4.9.4, glibc-2.23-r4, 4.12.5-gentoo i686)

Specifying wrong base address caused incorrect jump offsets into the final binary. That caused crash and hangup of cdrom.sys driver. This change restores original base addresses.

Gah, my original patch was complete garbage. I wonder how I've managed to miss different '-Wl,-Ttext,' bases. Restored bases and now dosemu does not hang for me at least on startup and gets to the prompt. Thanks all for the report and quickly nailing down offending patch!
