I'm told that Linux will run in 4 MB, as will Coherent.  I don't know
if either of them has DOS under UNIX capability (I don't think so).
Commercial UNIX is usually required for that, and you really don't
have enough memory to run that well.

DV/X is DOS software to make the DOS machine into an X client (run X
applications, which you can then use from an X terminal or a UNIX
machine running X).
