Hello Clarence,
Thank you for your hint concerning the formatting problems.
I try it again now and send a copy to the Arachne mailing list,
because other people may have had the same problem as you.
Again I have tried to install Arachne using the advice I have
got from this mailing list. Thanks for the help. I have come a
little bit further.
I have adjusted autoexec.bat and config.sys, and choose the
graphic card Trident 800x600. Then Arachne starts:
The two grey headlines (Arachne ..)are visible, one line at the
bottom (copyrigth ...) and then two rectangular grey areas at
the rbottom rigth corner of the screen in the upper field
(of this two) a message appears: DOS Memory (KB) 4303 [+] ,
Festplatte 0 [!!!]. Then at the top of the screen the following
message comes still: memory allocation error; Command cannot
be loaded, system halted.
If I remove smartdrive and keyb.com from the autoexec.bat
(to get more memory) the following message appears after
the harddisk wws engaged in work for quite a long time: Stack
overflow.
I do not know what to do now!?!?
Here some additional information:
At our school we have some old 386�s (with 8 MB Ram and
without Windows), which we want to use for Internet-access.
During setup I choose XMS and VG.A
Betriebssystem / operating system: MS-Dos 6.22

Monitor: AOC CMLB-337
