Hi Leo,
when you have a standard install of FreeDOS, it will
automatically include jemm386 or jemmex, which will
have a readme in the \freedos\doc\jemm386\ directory
or maybe in your case \fdos\doc\jemm386\ directory.
The newest version is from 2020 and probably not yet

You can use JEMMEX to provide EMS. Command docs are here
(https://web.archive.org/web/20200205000957/http://help.fdos.org/en/hhstndrd/base/jemmex.htm).
You need a line like
```

```
in your fdconfig.sys.
See (https://www.philscomputerlab.com/ms-dos-starter-pack.
