3.5. Can I run DOS binaries under FreeBSD?

Not yet! We'd like to add support for this someday, but are still lacking anyone to actually do the work. Ongoing work with Linux's DOSEMU utility may bring this much closer to being a reality sometime soon. Send mail to The FreeBSD hackers list if you're interested in joining this effort!

However, there is a neat utility called ``pcemu'' in the ports collection which emulates an 8088 and enough BIOS services to run DOS text mode applications. It requires the X Window System (provided as XFree86 3.1.2).
