keep things as simple as possible.
First, it matter if you have NT/2000/XP/2003 or MSDOS/Win9x.
in case of Win9x, MetaKern can be useful.
In your case, adding a line to BOOT.INI was all that's needed (if you hav=
e a bootsectorfile):
C:\BOOTSECT.BIN=3D"FreeDOS beta9 release candidate 5"

device=3Dc:\fdos\bin\himem.exe
device=3Dc:\fdos\bin\emm386.exe X=3DTEST
DOS=3DHIGH,UMB
switches=3D/E
shell=3Dc:\command.com /P:c:\fdos\bin\fdauto.bat

get latest versions of HIMEM and EMM386 from:
http://fdos.org/ripcord/beta9-final/addon/odin7bin.zip
(write the diskette image to diskette, then you can access the files).
