I would personaly use a small Linux Distro and many instances of DOSEMU.
That way you have everything stable and well tested with a very good
performance.
IIRC there was such a thing: http://www.magma.com.ni/~jorge/lios/
It would be nice to have a modern port of that :)

You know what would be really awesome in FreeDOS? multitasking. There
are no open source multitaskers for DOS. They used to have some programs
that did that a long time ago, but they were all proprietary. When I say
multitasking, I don't mean task switching like in MS DOSShell. Can
this be done?

Hi Jim, I all!
What should change with FreeDOS 2.0? Some ideas, I think, they have to
be a must :-)
*Using 4DOS as standard command tool, and Bash or freecom as choice.
*Using JEMM as memory manager
*Using HX Extender Co to support Windows programs in DOS
*PythonD as modern script language
*Using an Editor which supports large files (like FED or SETEDIT)
*One standard file manager (my choice would be FW or NDN)
*No more 386- support
I also think, that it shouldn't be a BIG collection of all free DOS
programs.
The distribution should contain less, but powerful programs. (Download
via WGET for additional tools could be possible.) If there are more
than one (like file managers) we could make a poll at freedos.org
http://freedos.org
where user and developer can choose them.
Network: Latest Arachne (a much more advanced version should be
distributed soon) is a ''must, also tools like WGET. And one big
problem still exists: a driver. So there should be a note at the
installer, which points to FreeDOS Wiki or another site, where a good
documentation exists ( about installing such a driver).
And the GUI? I would say OZONE :-))
Even with the drag'n'drop-bug it has many features and developing of
programs isn't difficult.
