Hello
I plan to buy OLPC XO laptops from One Laptop Per Child project.
I plan to run old DOS education program on the laptop.
Unfortunately
1. There is no standard BIOS on the laptop.
2. There is no VGA/EGA/CGA display mode on the built-in display controller on the laptop.

Hi XO,
I plan to buy OLPC XO laptops from One Laptop Per Child project.
1. There is no standard BIOS on the laptop.
2. There is no VGA/EGA/CGA display mode on the built-in display
Is it possible to port FreeDOS to this new AMD Geode laptop?
I think the OLPC will run on Linux. And on Linux,
I remember that there was a project IIRC called L(i)DOS tha loaded a
minimal Linux kernel, DOSEMU and one shell.
IMHO this could be a way to go, but withou graphics, for graphics you
would need X which would make things bigger.

implementedin fact, the graphical controller is embedded in the

DOSEMU so i cannot tell much about it
DOSEMU's performance is very good. Graphic is faster than any other emu
