Hi, it's me again...
 
I followed Torbens advice and added:
SHELL=COMMAND.COM /p /e:2048
because I also got:
"Arachne is out of conventional (low) DOS memory"
(I can see this under the NORTON COMMANDER screen with Ctrl+O)
There are 13856 bytes missing. This number of bytes changes.
 

The system is not running on a plain DOS machine as Windows is
also there, but...
after 'start' the machine is not going at once to Windows because
it is halted first by the 'NORTON COMMANDER'.
Now I can do anything I want in DOS.
(Pentium I  75MHz)
 
When I leave DOS by leaving "NORTON" (F10) the machine goes on
entering Windows 95.
I did install this sequence because by going to Windows first and
then back to DOS by the Windows 'DOS-prompt' gives problems with
DOS-programmes that uses a temporary file. E.g. wordprocessors
like WordStar or WordPerfect than lose the latest changes made.
If I go to DOS first and not through to Windows there is never
any problem with any DOS program.
 
I will ad to this file the config.sys and autoexec.bat.
 
**** Is there a possibility to create a logfile for or into
Arachne in order to see what is happening and to ease problem
solving ? ****
 
==>autoexec.bat
Call C:\TBAV\tbstart.bat
mode con codepage prepare=((437) C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ega.cpi)
mode con codepage select=437
PATH C:\TBAV;C:\;C:\NORTON
nc
(TBAV is virusscanner)
 
==>config.sys
device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\display.sys con=(ega,,1)
Country=031,850,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\country.sys
SHELL=command.com /p /e:2048
 
Waiting for your comments and tnx, Bastiaan
