Is DOS/16M compatible with Linux DOS emulation?
Although we do not currently QA any of our products against the Linux DOSEMU package, and cannot promise that it will work, we have been following the DOSEMU development. It appears that most programs built with DOS/16M do, in fact run under Linux, particularly with versions of DOSEMU of .60 or later. Several different programs built with DOS/16M, are on the ‘success’ list of DOSEMU. It appears that DOSEMU provides a good DPMI host, and that’s all DOS/16M needs to work successfully. There may be other DOS and/or BIOS and/or hardware features that are not supported under DOSEMU, so your application may not work without modification, but DOS/16M itself seems to work very well. .
