Michael,
I didn't use the Arachne wizards on my upgrade from b1,(except for
the video setup, required) and was able to use 1.60b2 for quite some
time with no problems even with the 81K setup in conventional memory.
When I checked my memory report, I saw the setup there, so remembered
to exit and restart to clear it out. As long as "Exit" button and
"Restart" button allow Arachne to reclaim the 81K conventional memory,
then it shouldn't matter. Using MS-DOS 6.22, I have 615K of conventional
memory available for Arachne, as I load epppd.exe and mouse driver high.
The 81K setup caused no problems for me. Actually, I was able to upgrade
in a few minutes, with no difficulty at all. Arachne works
wonderfully on these older legacy computers.
Thanks!
