I got such a distribution based on Nanolinux running here. However, there are quite a lot of settings and tests with Dosemu to be made before I can make it available for download. The size is currently about 14 MB. If I would add Alsa for sound it would be an extra 20 MB. On the second, third, etc. VT you can start a new dosemu instance again. E.g. I have to test networking and want to add FDNPKG so you have a repo to download applications from the net. I am also refering to Geraldo's post below. The size of Nanolinux plus Dosemu will not be much different to a distro made with buildroot. And uClibc will make porting additional Linux applications and drivers to the distro more difficult.
