Re: re: re2: re3: re4: re5: re6: re7: re8: re9: re10: re11: re12: XMSDSK. What mail user agent do you use? Nobody else seems to have such subjects!
Please try before shouting. If MS RAMDRIVE in MS kernel with MS HIMEM still
crashes with Jazz Jackrabbit, it is Jazz's fault. But I think that it is
EITHER the XMS driver, the ramdisk driver or the kernel. Not all three of
them and not none of them. We should find and fix this component then. I can only tell you that I found no working combination yet, but others will have more components around to compare (e.g. MS kernel and drivers).
This is probably one of those DOS extender kernel problems which we may never solve :-(
We should indeed tell our users about UMBPCI, but we simply MAY not include
it. It is updated too often and the author insists that all mirrors are kept
very up to date. A weekly Ibiblio mirror might be okay, but a CD-ROM image
which is only updated a few times per year is NOT an acceptable mirror for
the UMBPCI author.
He is right to insist so. The rate at which new chipsets are introduced is so high that it quickly obsoletes. So, I agree - POINT to it, but not include in the CD-ROM.
But we may safely include XMSDSK! It's not simply the best - it's the only one that supports so big drives as far as I know. Even if we don't - be sure, the knowledgeable user WILL USE IT!
