Yes. I tested it on a FreeDOS 1.1 guest on my Mac.
And, as I don’t have Windows machine anymore, I started a Windows 10 VirtualBox
guest, and inside of it I used VirtualBox for Windows and tested it there with
a FreeDOS 1.1 guest. Normally JEMMEX crashes there, but not this time.

Actually they discussed it in the VirtualBox forum:

Seems some people at Oracle are still interested in DOS.

Yes, this is nice. On OS X you can just double-click the image to mount it.
Just a quick review about qemu and networking:
Networking with qemu is difficult. Per default it uses NAT, but only for TCP.
So I can’t ping the outside world. WGET works. I managed to transfer files with
FileZilla to mTCP ftpsrv. (Which is a miracle as all other clients won’t even
do a directory listing.)
For bridged networking I’d have to install a TUN/TAP software on the host.
Complicated.
I start qemu with:
qemu-system-i386 -hda freedos.img -boot c -m 32 -netdev
user,id=usernet,net=192.168.3.0/24,dhcpstart=192.168.3.101 -device
pcnet,netdev=usernet -redir tcp:2121::21
With „-device pcnet“ qemu supports the AMD PCFastIII (pcnet) network card, so
the packet driver in FreeDOS 1.1 (PCNTPK) can be used.

Brr. :-)
Good luck!!
