Hi!
256 MB should be plenty, but I do not know what the default configuration is. HIMEMX is supposed to be okay, but you can try other provided boot options with other drivers. Also note that it might matter which style of A20 gate your virtual machine offers, as misunderstandings about that can cause confusing for HIMEM and EMM386 drivers. Such problems can then show up as trouble when using XMS, HMA or UMB. FreeDOS uses all of those relatively early during boot when they are enabled, but of course you can change the configuration in many ways such as not putting DOS=HIGH,UMB lines.
