Re: [Xen-devel] (free)dos under xen

I may have already asked this a while ago... would it be possible for
dos (free or ms) to run under xen, or does it have to be 'protected'
mode operating system?

And if dos worked, what are the chances of getting some of the 386
extender (dos4gw if I remember correctly) style games working? Or is
that precisely the thing that would need to be recompiled to work under
xen?

If only real mode dos could work, how easy would it be to modify the xen
scheduler to simulate a much slower machine?


hi,

if what you want is a slower machine, why not just use Bochs?
