I was reading some article about the future of FreeDOS and I was asking myself if FreeDOS could and would profit from running on top of Nova Hypervisor: http://hypervisor.org/
I learned about it through the Genode project, which recently managed to have VirtualBox ported to run nicely on top of Nova. Truely, it seems that Nova have been used mostly to run Linux on top, but I suppose the 16 bits nature of DOS still allows it to be run on Nova, although I am not completely sure of that. The good point is Nova allows to use modern CPU virtualization features for devices, so that FreeDOS VM could think they have access to the real devices. I am more following projects than an active developpers, so I post here to let you bright guys evaluate if it can be done, and if it is usefull for the FreeDOS project. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
