Hi There,

Have been having a problem which is bugging me for a while and hoping someone might be able to shed some light. DOSBox on Ubuntu refuses to launch MS Windows 3.1. This manifests itself when installing 3.1 (will crash when it tries to launch the 2nd windows based install) and also when launching a pre-canned windows install structure.

This works fine in Windows 10 (dual boot).

I am on DOSBox v0.74-4.2build1
Ubuntu 17.10

Error in crash report - 'Segfault - destination is not in a writable VMA region (needed writable region)'

Any help would be most appreciated - I dont spend much time in Windows - so would like to get this working from Linux if possible.

Thanks
Pete
