It may be a bit late, but ...

As far as I can remember, M$-DOS 6.22 config works
pretty much the same as M$-DOS 7.10 config, per below.

Basically, CONFIG.SYS is where it all starts. Here's an example :
==============================================================
REM Available ROM space on this machine : E000-EEFF??? (Unused/Auto-detected)
REM Also mapped over : B000-B7FF (MDA video address space) :
device=c:\windows\himem.sys
device=c:\windows\emm386.exe ram i=b000-b7ff

DOS=HIGH,UMB
BREAK=ON
COUNTRY=061,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\COUNTRY.SYS
BUFFERS=30
FILES=45
LASTDRIVE=Z
FCBS=16,16
rem STACKS=9,256

[MENU]
MENUITEM = STANDARD, Standard DOS Configuration
MENUITEM = WINDOZE, Standard Windoze Configuration
MENUITEM = DOS_USB, DOS with USB support (Cannot use Windoze)
MENUDEFAULT = WINDOZE, 5

[DOS_USB]
REM - Panasonic's universal USB-controller driver (formerly Novac)
device=C:\ASPI_USB.DRV\PANASONC\USBASPI.SYS /v /w
REM - Adaptec's ASPI disk driver (supports partition table)
device=c:\ASPI_USB.DRV\Adaptec\aspidisk.sys

[WINDOZE]

[STANDARD]

[COMMON]

DEVICEHIGH C:\WINDOWS\SETVER.EXE
DEVICEHIGH C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ANSI.SYS

DEVICEHIGH C:\CD_DRV\LITE-ON\CDROM.SYS /D:ATAPI001

rem ? devicehigh C:\net\ifshlp.sys
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /E:512 /P
==============================================================

Now, you have the option of specifying an alternative
to AUTOEXEC.BAT via the SHELL command. I presume you
can have an individual SHELL command for the individual
configuration sections, rather than the above, which
has a common SHELL command.

Details from the M$-DOS 7.10 help are as follows :
==============================================================
/K command
    Runs the specified command, program, or batch program and then displays
    the MS-DOS command prompt. This switch must be the last switch on the
    COMMAND command line.

    This switch is particularly useful for specifying a startup batch file
    for the MS-DOS Prompt in Windows (much like AUTOEXEC.BAT for MS-DOS). To
    do this, open the DOSPRMPT.PIF file using the PIF Editor, and type the
    /K switch in the Optional Parameters box. It is not recommended to use
    the /K switch on the SHELL command line in your CONFIG.SYS file; doing
    so can cause problems with applications and installation programs that
    make changes to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
==============================================================

Alternatively, you can check for the chosen config in
AUTOEXEC.BAT (which is what I do) using commands like :

if $%CONFIG%==$DOS_USB goto nongui
if $%CONFIG%==$STANDARD goto nongui


BTW, the M$-DOS 7.xx help is found on the Windoze 9X
CD in the "\tools\oldmsdos" directory.

Joe.
