## Comments:

      By default, FreeDOS will set x high enough for all floppy drives and
      detectable hard drive partitions, plus one for a CD or other drive.
      You may want to set x higher if you wish to use more than one drive that
      FreeDOS cannot detect automatically (CD drives, zip drives etc.).
      Setting x higher than necessary wastes a small amount of memory.
      LASTDRIVEHIGH is like LASTDRIVE, except it attempts to load into high
      memory first (failing that it should load in conventional memory).
      Note: The order you load devices may have a large impact on amount
      of free memory available. In general try to load large (in memory
      usage) programs into high memory first.
      Important: You should have a high memory manager such as (HIMEM), HIMEMX
      or JEMMEX installed (prior device=himem.exe or device=himemx.exe
      in CONFIG.SYS / FDCONFIG.SYS) before using this option.
      LASTDRIVEHIGH is a command internal to kernel.sys and needs no other file
      in order to work.
