Well.. I have a ancient dos based software I have to use and it does not work 
in virualbox/freedos, dosemu and dosbox. it crashes on all of them. Currently 
I have it running on a slackware machine where it works with in dosemu. 

Looks like I have to get slackware in virtualbox and run dosemu within it. :)
