I may be wrong on this,but couldn't we just strip down the code used for
FreeDOS?Removing un-needed modules,drivers,and removing any COUT/PRINTF
statements to the point where it's just the kernel itself should do it.

What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you? Monitors network bandwidth and traffic
patterns at an interface-level. Reveals which users, apps, and protocols are
consuming the most bandwidth. Provides multi-vendor support for NetFlow,
J-Flow, sFlow and other flows. Make informed decisions using capacity planning
reports. http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/clk?id=1444514421&iu=/41014381
