FreeDOS & Atom Processor

I've been thinking about putting together a desktop box based on an Atom processor. I'm wondering if there are any potential problems with running FreeDOS on such a machine. Thoughts, anyone?

No known complaints so far ... but DOS won't be able to use more than
1 core and 32 bits ;-)

Check also the graph card (should have intact VESA), sound (old ICH
better than HDA), USB (should have UHCI), Floppy (should be present at
all), Speaker (should be present at all), PS/2 (should be present at
all), ...
