Y'know it's possible to run Linux in single-user mode (runlevel 1
or `telinit 1' at the prompt). Not sure what the overall limitations
would be, other than the obvious, but that would be a waste of the
OS.
In that case we're good to go with DR-DOS, its multitasker (if need be),
and 4DOS.
DOS!! Now And Forever!
