That is not "directly" bootable. It is a VirtualBox appliance, it is
neant to be loaded inside Virtualbox:
In Virtualbox manager GUI, goto File > Appliance > import > everything
else can be lefta as is...
Then you will get a new Virtual Machine, when you initialyzed, it will
boot Linux
On the Desktop there are some Icons that will boot FreeDOS preconfigured.
I hope this help, feel free to ask again if needed.

I have loaded the FreeDOS onto my Hard drive with Linux(Unbuntu) but
have not been able to boot directly to FreeDOS. The Boot Loader is
GRUB.I have placed the FREE DOS info on aselection for GRUB. But
still does not work. I am looking for someone whom may know the GRUB
commands for loading FREEDOS. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I have been using FreeDOS on a Linux VM for a few years now and I made a
special image to make it public:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33399957/FreeDOS/Ubuntu140432-DosemuLimpo-1.ova
* VirtualBox Appliance, just: Files > Inport appliance... and you have a
full VM
* Based on Ubuntu LTS with LXDE, as light as possible to remain usefull
* Fast access to host files using VirtualBox share
* Dosemu and FreeDOS fully preconfigured, can run graphic programs
* Network fully functional, can talk to any device on your network
* 3 FreeDOS instance can access the network and talk to each other too
* There are a few Dosemu patches applied for graphics and keyboard
Some of it (most) is in portuguese. If there is some interest I can make
an international version or some needed resource
