I'm trying to get dosemu2's native bootloader to boot PC-MOS, see https://github.com/stsp/dosemu2/issues/502. What are the minimum files required to boot the system? For example:

On MS-DOS

IO.SYS
MSDOS.SYS
COMMAND.COM

From watching PC-MOS try to boot I wonder if the following is the correct set?

$$MOS.SYS
$$SHELL.SYS
COMMAND.COM

that is enough to boot, yes.
