I'm looking for a substitute for MSDOS, so that I can boot an application
without loading MSDOS before. I need no complete DOS for the application,
but it should contain the I/O-Routines for access of harddisk, disk-drive,
keyboard and screen, and all you need to run a normal application..

Does anyone know, if there is such a DOS in the PD-, Shareware- or normal
market? Or if that doesn't exist, do you think it's complicated to
program that myself? And where could I find the information to do that?
