Do all boot options result in the “out of memory” error?
No, it works when booted with JEMM386 and HIMEMX.
Also, JEMM was updated to 5.85 for RC2. I doubt it will make any difference.
But, you may want to test the previous version of JEMM with FreeCOM 0.86. Since
I have not had the opportunity to update the packages on the update/download
repository, you could just use FDNPKG to remove then install JEMM386. That
would fetch 5.84 from the repo and install it. Easy to do with networking under
VMware. However, I do not think it likely to fix the issue.
I tested with JEMMEX 5.84 from RC1. Same problem. However, when I boot
with FreeCOM 0.85a and then launch FreeCOM 0.86 after the system is
booted, it works.
This could be related to the “out of memory” issues Paul Dufresne was
experiencing on real hardware with RC1, FreeCOM 0.85a and JEMM 5.84. That
seemed to occur while FreeCOM was initializing. I think he was able to mitigate
the error by changing what was loaded prior to FreeCOM. However, I do not think
the actual problem was found or fixed.
Seems indeed to be the same problem. Question would be which component
actually causes this: FreeCOM, JEMMEX or KERNEL? Tricky to debug if it
only occurs sporadically.
Greetings, Bernd
