Alessandro,
Never done it myself but here is a website where a guy explains how to set up a multiboot system for DOS 6.22-Win 98-Win NT-Linux (- FreeBSD 3.3)

Good luck, Doug

It is infact a Dual boot system with MS-DOS you need.
Install MS-DOS 6.22 First Then Windows 95 or 98 Install TweakUI from Windows CD Run TweakUI - Select Boot Select ' Always show boot menu' Restart PC and select Previous OS Now Install Windows 3.1 into a directory called 'Win31' (Or anything other than Windows) Edit Autoexec.Bat to this directory. You now have a Dual Boot System. Best not to use FAT32 However!

I use PowerQuest's PartitionMagic to run multiple OS's on my PC. It's really easy to use. It will set up partitions on your hard drive, size them, and set up whatever FAT you need. Try it, Alessandro, you'll like it. It's a no-bullshit approach to running multiple OS's.
