Dos based program how to boot it
Hi this is my first post on this forum and it's already a question . So the problem is I have a program for putting some informations about clients and it's really old program. And I need it just for today to run it on 2 computers that have Ubuntu installed. What are the possibilites to run them? I could also get 2 computers that have Windows XP installed would be easier to do it? Should I get MS-dos or something? Thanks any help would really be appreciated.

Does the program need to run under DOS? Or are you asking how to make it work with XP or Ubuntu? Does it connect to specialized hardware, or could you run it in a virtual system with something like FreeDOS?
