From the manpage:
  -x   Open an X11 window to display output.  This enables a variety
       of interrupts not available otherwise.  This can be used with or
       without -b.

I can boot dos 5.0 using:
  $ doscmd -x -b
My ~/.doscmdrc has
  boot a:
  assign a: /usr/share/doscmd/dos50.img 1440
  assign t: /tmp
  assign u: -ro /
Use 'xset fp+ /usr/libdata/doscmd/fonts' when doscmd complains about
missing fonts.

I hope this gets you going.
