Problem is it wouldn't be useful for much.  After all, ARM isn't 
x86-compatible, and if there isn't already a DOS port onto ARM, you're 
going to have to roll all supporting software yourself.

(I said "if there isn't", because DOS *was* ported to other CPUs - Digital 
Research had done an OS with the DOS API and filesystem on the 68000, as 
practically any Atari ST programmer might be able to tell you.)
