Confession time... it appears that the boot manager wasn't able to read the FreeDOS partition because I set it to look at a non-existent HD for it. And it was only after accidentally deleting and recreating the MBR I figured out what I'd done!
Now that I've got it looking in the right place, FreeDOS is booting with no problems. Thanks for the advice, Bernd and Chris.
