MSDOS 7.10 does move the EBDA though. What MSDOS are we looking at now -- the FAT16 kernel says 5.0, and the FAT32 says 7.10 ? > in the default setting, moving the EBDA doesn't save any memory; > setting switches /E:512 might enable 'MOVEEBDA' and would save low memory Lucho had his reasons to implement it in the first place -- I have no idea why we suddenly have all these problems surfacing after >6 monts. I also wonder if we don't have a bug somewhere? I can't remember stories of people being forced to use "SWITCHES=/E" for Windows 98. I agree it's probably safer to not move it by default but I'd like to know where the problem really is.
