What about DOSBox? Here's the link to (I think) the latest version, but you have to sideload it:

DOSBox

This may not be what you mean, as it doesn't have full root access or anything, it just works as a file manager/DOS emulator

DOS box is DOS emulator
What I mean is local OS console, where you can run QNX batch script

I would like this as well... a way to delve inside the PB the way you would when you open a terminal/console in Linux.

There is an android port named Konsole, that must be sideloaded but then works perfectly on today's latest OS. I don't find the link right now, but I remember it was indicated straight on this forum somewhere... (searching)
Ah, yes, it's there: search for the post from (our star) xsacha, and don't forget to thank him
