Japeth's HX DOS-Extender allows a wide variety of Win32
console applications to run on DOS.

DOSEMU if ported to DOS could also allow for a DOS console
environment on DOS without need of Windows 98/SE/ME.

User-Mode Linux uses standard C library calls.  It does not use
the Linux syscalls as normal Linux does.  However, the syscalls
are just hidden behind C library calls...  Even so, this could
allow for Linux to be ported to DOS using GCC, perhaps using
DJGPP.

Robert Riebisch in his port of DMIDECODE to DJGPP implemented a
Linux device for DJGPP "/dev/mem".  That or similar DJGPP
filesystem code might be enough to port an early but updated
version of Linux to DJGPP such as DrAcOnUx's Linux remakes.

FreeDOS-32 is an attempt at creating a 32-bit DOS.  It's been
stalled for a few years.
http://freedos-32.sourceforge.net/

Coreboot, formerly LinuxBIOS, has an old project called FILO.
FILO has protected mode (i.e., 32-bit) BIOS *independent* disk
routines for IDE, USB, SATA, ext2, FAT, iso9660, Multi-boot, and
ELF.  It's derived from Linux filesystem source code.  These
routines might help in porting DOSBox, DOSEMU, or early Linux etc
to DOS.
