I have an older computer where I triple boot FreeDOS, xp, and Linux. The best way (and really only way) you should atempt multiple boot systems is by usin multiple drives with their own os on them and use the linux grub menu to choose which to boot into. I cannot recoment multi boot on just one drive as that can cause too many issues, especially not done right.
I can recomend multiple options. use a virtual machine to run freedos, install a second drive for freedos, or use a usb flash drive to run freedos off of. It is possible to install freedos on your current system but too risky.
