DOS=AUTO does many things (also trying to load himem.sys iirc) -- since
we are trying to be mostly msdos pre win9x compatible I'm not sure if it
would be desirable to have something like this. The FAT32 kernel simply
says "7.10" to signal to some DOS utilities that FAT32 is available.

I wasn't sure about "2.5b-multi", since metakern seems to be OK without
it; I tried asking Jeremy and Eric but Jeremy doesn't seem to be around
right now.
