no. the FreeDOS kernel supports both 4 GB FAT16 partitions, using 64k
clusters, and FAT32 partitions of up to 2 TB.

there are more factual errors in this article.

yes. however you have to install it manually as the intended multi
boot environment.

the installer has no way to install it as a multi boot choice.
