That sounds reasonable.

You don't need this for Doom, but it shouldn't hurt.

Make sure you have all the *.PAT files in C:\GUS\MIDI\*.PAT. If Doom
can't find them, you won't get music. You should notice Doom pausing for
a few seconds at "DMX_Init" or some such when it starts up, with the HD
going nuts. This is when the patches are loaded.

Again, Doom doesn't need this (but won't care the slightest).

Doom doesn't need either of these. EMM386 isn't a good idea. If you have
8 megs or more, it should be ok... with a 4 meg machine, dump'm and run
with no memory manager at all.

Device HIGH? Bad idea. ULTRINIT.SYS doesn't stay in memory after it
terminates. Low is safer. Besides, you don't really need it anyways.
