I also use GRUB, and have several entries with DOSes there:

title Win98/MS-DOS
root (hd0,0)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader (hd0,0)/ms-dos.bs

title FreeDOS
root (hd0,0)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader (hd0,0)/freedos.bs

title Enhanced DR-DOS
root (hd0,0)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader (hd0,0)/dr-dos.bs

the "ms-dos.bs", "freedos.bx" and "dr-dos.bs" are bootsector files (512 bytes size), IIRC they were created using FreeDOS SYS.COM, which optionally allows to write such files and NOT modify the true boot sector.
