Hello,
I am not too familiar with DOS or FreeDos.
Can we run fdisk on a file? Don't we need a block device? The fdisk
should be from freedos, right?

Hi,
both qemu and bochs have such 'image creation tool'
on bochs they call bximage.exe
on qemu they call qemu-img.exe
so, you can use any of those tools to create a 'raw image'
after that, you'll configure your virtual machine to use this
raw image and then you can install any operating system

I don't know ... possibly not directly ...
Don't we need a block device?
Maybe rather a physical disk ?

YES.
But it's pointless: FDISK will run inside BOCHS and think to access a
physical disk, and BOCHS will redirect it
Hi,
We need to create a large (16MB) freedos boot image that can be
used with grub.
Presently we use fdboot.img but it is too small for our application.
Any pointer on how to create a larger fdboot.img will be appreciated.
