Thanks, Ralf:
I much rather think that the confusion is that (Free)DOS is not plug&play, so if you plug in the USB stick after FreeDOS is booted up, it will very likely (though depending on the BIOS of the machine) not recognize that there is a different drive. Boot up with the USB stick inserted, and it is very likely to see it just fine. That's how it works on my old Dell laptop...
I had tried that without success. But a FAT16 CompactFlash card solved my problem.
