I got my DOS (finicky) program to run - FINALLY

I tried Wine, hated that I didn't have Windos installed...
I tried DosBox, the program didn't like it...
I tried a second hard drive, with Win98 installed...
***** Wine wouldn't run a DOS program...
***** DosBox, again, the program didn't like it...

THE FINAL SOLVE (to this long standing hatered of a DOS program and Linux)
1) Win98 installed on a second hard drive ( I don't think I had to have it this way, since, I mapped a DOS drive letter through Linux's device mount point)
2) apt-get and install both DosEmu and FreeDos - set up a drive mapping for drive D: to my mount point of my Linux device mounted Win98 hard drive.

AND THE DOS PROGRAM RUNS PERFECTLY

YES, YES, and triple YES -=- Cuddles is doing the "happy dance" all around the room

This thread is finally resolved, and I want to thank everyone, for all the help, and my DOS program thanks you all too
