How is your boot disk maker coming up with MS-DOS 6.22 binaries
from the host system if MS-DOS has not been installed on it?

Is it just booting Windows in real mode?

If your boot disk maker contains any of the MS-DOS 6.22 binaries, it
is in violation of Microsoft's copyrights, and Microsoft is still quite
active in going after anyone that is distributing MS-DOS boot
disks or images of them with out paying them their license fee for each
one.

That license fee was last known to be about $75.00 per copy if you
were a very large customer.
