Surprisingly, I've succeed to make the USB boot stick under WinXP with
HP's tool (found HP SP27213 USB format tool). Just point it to the
FreeDOS systems files location, it'll create the bootable FreeDOS on
the USB stick (seems the formatter can did some tricks while others
can't).

You can try this, if it's not working, do try the latest cvs-Kernel
(in Jeremy's server) and Command.com!
