Devuan has a prepackaged ... package for QEMU as well as one for FreeDOS.

I knew Chuck Forsberg personally and he always told me not to use ZModem
over telnet as it was not designed for use with TCP/IP.  You just said what
he said paraphrased: there's too many timing issues with it.  He recommended
YModem (which I use on my own system) or YModem-G.

I used to drive past Chuck's house when I lived outside of Portland, Oregon
in the 90s every day. :D  He lived on Sauvie Island, just north of Portland
in the Columbia River.

Later,
Sean
