For a loading .sys after initialisation, you need devload.com,
a tool that comes with the latest DR-DOS 7.03; also a freeware
for all DOSes. Can be found in Lineo's ftp (full DR-DOS, or
separate in beta section). You have better to use XMSDISK,
by the way: no need of a .sys, resizable, etc. Search furd*.zip
