I've used dos drivers in dosemu to use a CDROM for which there was no linux
driver.
worked in dosemu without a glitch. This was on dosemu from at least 3 years
ago too.
I just had to know all the ports and irq the drive & driver wanted and I
told dosemu to "passthru" those. no problem, since nothing in linux was ever
touching them, since as I said, there was (and still isn't, and likeley
never will be now) no such thing as a linux driver for it.
I'm speaking of the one weird exception to the phillips CM-205 driver, lmsi
interface, on a PAS-16. it's not the card or the interface that's the
sticking point, it's the drive. *shrug*
