Actually to create a install distro we don't even need dosemu, zip/unzip is already there, we would only need to handle fdupdate/fdpkg but i guess it would easier to port it to any sh :) of course your approach doing freedos on top of dosemu on top of linux would be really nice too :) but my main concern is about 8086 guys who uses freedos, they wont be able to run such linux distro either for installation or any other form and i guess, they are reading this msg, right? :P 8086 support/compatibility is a premise...
