Re: installing OS-BS from FreeBSD...

A wierd (very) idea just came to me... 

While running the DOS emulation it may be possible to run the OS-BS 
installation -- if so, it may work with the FreeDOS clone, or perhaps
Caldera would allow DR-DOS 7 to be shipped with FreeBSD. (Perhaps free
or at a nominal cost?)

Does this sound reasonable to consider investigating.  The main problem
with the PC emulation is it requires X11 working which won't fit with
the current installation software.

It would be quite interesting if we could ship the same (actually newer)
dos with FreeBSD that ships with UnixWare!  Any new info on dos emulation
in Version 3.x -- I'm still on -STABLE.
