2.4 Can I run DOS binaries under FreeBSD?
--- -------------------------------------
Not yet! We'd like to add support for this someday, but are still
lacking anyone to actually do the work. Ongoing work with BSDI's
doscmd utility is bringing this much closer to being a reality in
FreeBSD-current (AKA 3.0) and you should send mail to
freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org if you're interested in joining this
effort!
Ongoing work with BSDI's doscmd utility is bringing this much closer to
being a reality in FreeBSD 3.0, though it still has some rough edges.
If you're interested in working on this, please send mail to
emulation@FreeBSD.org and indicate that you're interested in joining
this ongoing effort!
There is also a neat utility called "pcemu" in the ports collection
which emulates an 8088 and enough BIOS services to run DOS text mode
