I let the installer work under Qemu.  FreeDOS was installed 
to the first part of the drive.  Part 1 of Qemu parameter /dev/sdb.
Ie. /dev/sdb1

Then rebooted and FreeDOS came to life.  Good.  =8~)

Still wanted to multiboot and therefore installed Boot Manager.
That allowed booting Oberon in /dev/sdb2.
So the FreeDOS installer didn't cobber /dev/sdb2.

Then tried booting FreeDOS via Boot Manager.  No luck.
Screenshot here.  https://easthope.ca/BootManager.jpg
Note "Loading FreeDOS No KERNEL sys".

Anyone else have FreeDOS working in a multiboot setup?
Ideas?  Any clues in the screenshot?

Thx,            ... P.
