Hi Oleg,

Typical kernels are somewhat above 40 kB, but RayeR has made slightly
lighter versions for his RomOS :-). As for FreeCOM, typical sizes start
at around 60 kB, up to 70 kB, but old versions can be between 35 and 95
kilobytes, the former being the freedos beta2 version ;-). I guess it
would be better to use another shell or some norton commander clone or
similar instead of FreeCOM for ROM purposes. Do not forget that both
the kernel and FreeCOM will be a lot happier if you load HIMEM, btw.
