The port of DosBox v0.63 to OS/2 has been finished and can be downloaded at http://www.joschs-robotics.de/dosbox/ as installable WPI files. You will need WarpIn to install these files, obtainable at
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/warpin/warpin-1-0-6.exe

In case you didn't know, DosBox is a DOS emulator, available for Linux, Windows, BeOS, MacOS X and now OS/2! Its homepage can be found at http://dosbox.sourceforge.net. The main focus of DosBox is making classic DOS-based games available on modern platforms. If you have some old gem that doesn't run properly under OS/2, have a look at the list of supported games at http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/comp_list.php to see if it is supported.

More information about DosBox/2 can be found at
http://wiki.netlabs.org/index.php/DOSBox_Port. Please post bug reports specific to the OS/2 version there under "Issues" or contact the porter directly at This email address is being protected from spambots.

General information on getting started with DosBox can be found at http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php .
