I have both but i have the EGA copy installed. I've been very very carefully copying them from system to system with the disks (and a usb disk drive) as an emergency backup. Fortunately by game 4 they had CDs.

part of why i don't want to do linux. my DOS games! (not serious, i am pretty sure i can find a version of dosbox that works on wine or some easier solution)

i am a big fan of The Coles. it might show

    Dosbox has a Linux port. I played Phantasmagoria with it. Have you created a .img file of the disk?

    probably not. i have just been copying the same files from dos whatever version it was when we got So You Want To Be A Hero (it wasn't quest for glory back then, there was a copyright issue with the name) and ignoring my disks, hoping the disk mice haven't decided to eat the magnets out of the floppy.
