Hi, you can install MS-DOS or DR-DOS by simply copying it to a drive where Dosemu boots from, it will autodetect the type of kernel and simulate the right bootsector. If this does not work, you need to follow the usual procedure and install the other DOS by using sys - then you need to use a

Hi All, It's probably just a matter of time before there is a Linux compatible X server for DOS. With the sources available and with the GPL someone just has to get the spark and a little time :)) I assume that a 'basic' Xwindow server is relatively simple? At least I recall someone writing
