No, I don't. I don't know either what it exactly doea.
As I remember in the past when I created my config.sys and autoexec.bat files it didn't solve the problem with filling the first 4MB space.

To protect the first 4MB I use a resizeable ramdisk which can be called in config.sys and in command line too.

In config.sys I create 4MB ramdisk, then I load all my device drivers and on end of autoexec.bat I resize the ramsisk to 0. Unfortunetely the disk letter does not disappear from system so then I make JOIN E: C:\freedos\join_e
This workaround works perfectly for me.
