-> I'm a bit confused as to how DOSEMU speaks to the Linux file system

DOSEMU uses MFS (mach file system). It maps dos drive letters to
whatever linux subdirectory you want.

-> It would be nice to have a Windows version of DOSEMU.

I got PCBoard running on DOSEMU with inbound telnet support, but it hits
the CPU hard when you transfer files, and the telnet/pty support is
inadquate for protocols like zmodem; they don't work in a DOSEMU setup.

Using PCBoard on Windows XP with net2bbs and netfoss, file transfers
only put a light load on the CPU, and zmodem works. So unless you're a
hard core hacker trying to improve the DOSEMU code itself, I would not
use it for a BBS.
