More tests:
device? = c:\temp\emm386.exe ram i=b000-b7ff
device? = c:\temp\emm386.exe ram
device? = c:\temp\emm386.exe ram x=a000-ffff
device? = c:\temp\emm386.exe ram x=test
device? = c:\temp\emm386.exe ram vds
No one line is works with smartdrv. The more so, x=a000-ffff says about
"Selected page frame e000 not available, searchine automatically", but page
frame anyway installed at e000:0000.
But! When I replace MS-himem.sys by FD-himem.exe, smartdrv runs! MEMA

Note two things: DBLBUFF is loaded (msdos.sys contains DoubleBuffer=2 in
[Options] section) and there is CUSTOM and CTMOUSE in UMB, which loaded
successfuly in any configuration (though, smartdrv reboots with MS-himem
even if these utilities are removed).
PS: I already reported about incompatabilities between FD-EMM386 and
MS-HIMEM earlier. For example, 2004-07-13 I wrote: "something wrong happen
when used (under FreeDOS) HIMEM 3.95 from Win98: after loading command.com
system is rebooted. Bug?".
PPS: Send you smartdrv.exe and himem.sys?
