If you're worried about licensing issues, which personally I wouldn't

If you don't want to muck around with VMs then there are 720KB images
for FreeDOS available:

If you have a machine with a 1.4MB drive, & some 1.4MB media, here is
something simple you could try:
* Get a CD image of DOS, such as:
