I load it in config.sys :

DEVICE=C:\DEVS\RDOSUMB.COM #19 *
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DEVS\JEMMEX.EXE A20METHOD:FAST FRAME=E000 VERBOSE NOE801 NOE820 
NORAM D=0 VCPI
DOS=UMB,HIGH
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DEVS\EMSDSK.EXE 4364 /c02
 .
 .
 .

and see this after autoexec.bat finishes:

 Volume in drive G has no label
 Directory of G:\

COMMAND  COM        93,963  10-12-03  4:49
E3       EXE         4,095  02-03-08 22:48
LF       COM           256  07-03-09  2:59
BROWSE   COM         1,044  24-02-91  3:04
TETRIS   COM         2,048  13-04-05 23:29
         6 file(s)        101,406 bytes
         0 dir(s)         325,632 bytes free

 Note the reported free value.

 There is a value of EMSDSK size (5648K) above which dir 
reports correct values.

 If I omit the FRAME option in CONFIG.SYS, then I see this 
message during boot:

*** EMS RAMdisk v1.9I (FU - 08/98): ems get frame error

 and EMSDSK does not install. The memory map in this case 
shows no EMMXXXX0.

 It seems that FreeDOS does not work well with real-mode 
UMBs, since EMSDSK no longer shows any problems if I rem the 
first line in CONFIG.SYS and change the NORAM option to RAM. 
 Looking into UMBs (when they are real-mode), I found 
command.com there, possibly overlapping the EMS frame area. 

 Should real-mode UMBs be different from UMBs created by 
paging ?  DR/MS/PC DOS work well with real-mode UMBs.
