FreeDOS is IMHO not mature enough for serious use. 

I suggest you try RxDOS.  Stale versions are available at

http://www.freedos.org/files/distributions/rxdos/

and there is a mail archive (of sorts) at

http://www.egroups.com/group/rxdos/info.html

Contact Bill Isherwood for the latest sources and/or binaries, because
he has squashed a lot of bugs recently.  I attach a recent posting from
Bill to the RxDOS group.

If you do try RxDOS with DJGPP, please share your experiences.
