You might want to try the recent vmware port to FreeBSD which can already
boot NT.

As somebody who used to work on embedded systems (some of which were DOS
based), I feel you are wasting time with a software emulation solution.
I would strongly recommend putting together a cheap DOS only system and
a kvm (keyboard/video/mouse) switch and simply run both simultaneously.
If management has any objections simply point out the lost in productivity
of you having to fool with this stuff.  Unfortunately, sometimes it's hard
to get the beancounters to understand things like this.
