    You have to get the source code of DosBox ( DosBox source code for linux would be a better option -- Google & download it) and cross compile it for ARM targets. Usually the software packages ( DOsBOX), will include the instructions to cross compile for different platforms. Each package will have it's own configuration steps for cross compiling. Please do check for it.

    For cross compilation, you need a tool chain. The following are the available 3rd Party Tool Chains (not supported by TI) you can use it.

    You can check whether any executables are already available which runs on ARM.

    You can google and find the source code of it as DosBox is not provided by TI.
