No, because I just compiled the build on the Mac. Mac has nothing at all 
to do with this after.
To list the file I had to go /mnt/hda4/AUTOEXEC.BAT
That May very well be an issue with the DIMMPC. It is not an issue for 
me though.
I ran the test using hyper terminal on a Windows machine.

One thing I did notice, when I went to the shell option, the program 
crashed. I have nor looked any further.
