FreeDOS :-)

Pretty cool! Not sure if I understand it correctly, but in theory, one could boot FreeDOS?

I guess that would be more useful with write support -- some option to switch it on would be nice.

Yep, haven't tested it, but as MS-DOS is working well, I'm guessing FreeDOS will just work fine.

Indeed! I also don't want people breaking their filesystems by accident :) I think I'll write some CI/integration stuff soon-ish, so people can try this easier and I might then have a look at write support. Writing is always pretty dangerous and needs a lot of sanity checks, as I really don't want to mess up people's NVMe drive. Stuff like 4k sectors vs. 512byte sector accesses needs handling...

DOS never dies 🧙 I'll bookmark your project.
