I managed to put FreeDOS on a floppy disk, and add some extra utilities to it, and a script for mounting ISO files.

It has the different memory configurations of the FreeDOS VHD shared in the first post:

I also made a video showing what is on the disk and explaining the memory setup, because I managed to get it working with MiSTer FS which requires some memory exclusions to be used with the memory manager. It is also capable of mounting ISO files and has Volkov Commander to help with file management.

And I included DOS32A on it, a very useful DOS extender that can often help if you have issues with DOS4GW.
