I'm a beginner in osdev and i'm writing a 16 bit OS. And I'm wondering if it is possible to make an OS that can run DOS programs in 6 months?

It depends on which DOS programs you want to run. I suspect most games will take more than 6 months of work.

How hard is it to make a 16 bit OS compatible with DOS games
