Its github page says it's a hypervisor, and in the context of your question as
to whether it supports booting an arbitrary OS it doesn't make much of a
difference, but, from what I can see it's more of an emulator than a
hypervisor. However, for the typical FreeDOS use case, an emulator is indee
That's my video. I edited the OWSETENV.BAT file, but clearly forgot to
mention that in the video.
I actually did mention it in one of the takes for that video, but I had a
few false starts where I messed up near the beginning, and started a new
video. I guess I didn't mention the edit in the video
Please ignore my last. I see that it's a hypervisor, which should do
what I need.
I almost thought it was too much like DOSBox which is its own OS and I
was trying to stay away from that.
Nothing against DOSBox, it has its place and is best in what it does.

Not making any assumptions at all, and frankly it sounds interesting.
Merely trying to understand what it is in comparison to Virtualbox and
VMWare, or DOSBox.
If it's a virtual machine app meant to install an OS into like the first
two, then of course I'm very interested.

For those times when VirtualBox doesn't cut it, I use AQEMU, a GUI-based
frontend for QEMU.
QEMU itself supports SO many options that using it from a command line can be a
little daunting; AQEMU's GUI approach makes creating/configuring VMs much more
straightforward IMO.

A person from Argentina recently boasted on comp.os.msdos.misc about
posting to the Usenet from his 286 PC using Minuet.
Personally I do not have any experience with that, so I won't be able to
provide any further pointers. Apparently it can be downloaded here:
