    As anyone run Dosbian on a DOS machine? like old hardware?

    I would love it if I could get it to be a KVM machine.

    Thoughts?

    From what I've heard, Dosbian is Linux distro for the Raspberry Pi, pre-configured with a DOS emulator (DOSBox, I think) to run DOS games & software on a Raspberry Pi. I don't think Dosbian would run on actual old DOS hardware. And I don't really see the point - If you have actual DOS hardware, you can just install real DOS on it.
