What I meant is that DOSEMU itself could do int15/87h.
It would just have some virtualized raw extended

Yes, but 286 is a bit out of
the scope:)
and int15
if (BRM/LOADALL) fails.
It checks the PE bit of cr0 before
trying BRM, and if it is set, it

Not "them", you can't use *dosemu* if
your program uses VCPI. Use bochs
instead. The reason is already described
