How i can make my own DOS(Disk Operating System) distribution?

-2

So, i am making a batch file OS project in Windows, and i want to make it run under DOS. I want to make my own custom distribution of DOS that i can use as a shell of my project. I tried to find a clean source code, but no avail. How i can do it?

The very first google result for freedos is http://www.freedos.org/ and the source code is available there. In what ways is this not sufficient?

How i can customize it? I mean, change the name, add some commands to system? – HackerGamerLV – 2015-11-26T13:23:16.530

you can customioze DOS but don't call it your own distribution. We don't use such nonsense terminology in MS/DOS/Windows land. http://superuser.com/questions/908915/can-i-make-a-dosbox-like-in-virtual-box. Notice that I got the game Xenon 2 running, if you scroll down my answer to that question, you see a pic.

The source code for MSDOS 1.1 and 2.0 are freely available here.

It seems to me that you don't really want to create a full DOS (Disk Operating System), but maybe you just want to create your own custom user interface in a dos window/command prompt. Is that the case? Just curious.. – Kody Brown – 2015-11-26T18:48:08.320

Yeah, something like that. Like Windows 3.1 – HackerGamerLV – 2015-11-26T19:27:05.773
