I have dual boot FreeDOS and WIndows 7 on one spare retro-ish computer that
I dedicated to it.
When on WIndows I'm connected to the network and also I can natively see
FAT32 partition that is represented by FreeDOS.

Then my custom UEFI boot manager loads FreeDOS with all the stuff desired
for a bit of old school offline experience in its terminal.

I do various bare metal coding experiments in DOS mostly these days. Trying
to discover the true magic of the computer I installed it on.

I treat it as a hobby fed by nostalgia, some people repair old cars after
hours, some dwell into the past of computing like me.
