Hi!
Let me get a bit more verbose in my installation thoughts.
If you want to hide FreeDOS and MS DOS from each other,
at least a bit, you could use filesystem choice for that:
Install Linux on a Linux filesystem.
Install XP on some NTFS filesystem.
Install FreeDOS on a FAT32 filesystem.
I am no longer an experienced DOS user. I am relearning. And only
understood half of what you said. Guess I have gotten old and lazy.
and even back in the day I just went right to windows, to work in VB 3. I
think 95 came out a year after I really got my start.
Plus I really want them to be

coreboot+SeaBIOS opensource BIOS (adding that to my message here -

are fed up with the crappy proprietary BIOSes, this opensource one
could be much more satisfying
