I have installed the ms-dos version of emacs, and need to
run it when the machine is in ms-dos mode (i.e. command-prompt
only at start-up).

If I boot Win95, it runs (i) by double-clicking on the icon, a DOS-
window is started then, or (ii) by starting it from the MS-DOS prompt
in the MS-DOS window under Win95. No problem.

It is only when I boot the machine into MS-DOS prompt only, that
when I start emacs it starts and immediately returns to the MS-DOS
prompt. I have set LFN=Y and LFN=N, none seem to help.

Can anyone help me?
