Wow! Are you allowing EMM386 to use address A0000-AFFFF?
I've never been brave enough to do that (also, I had thought this
address range was required by the video card graphics?).
Anyway, the 78/79K is Green [+] (although I don't know what the
[+] means), with images on (of course ;-) and the EPPPD packet
driver resident. Given that I start Arachne with about 100K *more*
free conventional memory than the documentation claims is needed
(supposedly 530K to use with the "inbuilt PPP" ?!), how could this
be an issue, right?

I'd be happy to ... but to clarify, do you mean "To
arachne-development"
with "CC glenmcc" ?
