Hi PAP,
I assume unikernel means replacing hardware I/O by calls to a suitable hypervisor interface? In a way, DOS already does that by using BIOS. So you could make a BIOS-Unikernel and then run FreeDOS as app on that. But how do you deal with the fact that a DOS kernel and DOS apps will prefer a DOS memory model with real mode compatible pointers, can the hypervisor offer such spaces?
