If you can build the RxDOS kernel (instsect from oldmak.sh and that calling mak.sh) then you should also be building the RxCMD application.

Are you sure of this? In my tests FreeCOM (FreeDOS's CLI) doesn't work. Which exact version are you using? Can you specify the "VER /R" output?

Other than the FreeCOM question I don't really need your test image. But I would be interested what you specified in ovr.sh (or cfg.sh), which programs you had to install, which compression method you used, and whether you used dosemu2 (use_build_decomp_test=1).
