Hi Richard, not sure whether a dos extender with 4gb flat memory segments is useful... I mean there already are dpmione and hdpmi which have quite some punch and even dos32a and cwsdpmi are not bad.
About your 386/AT disk - good old AT probably is still the same as (parallel) ATA / IDE today, so as long as you can find out the correct geometry (maybe printed on some label on the disk?) a modern computer should be able to access the disk... You should check the thread with Roberto Waldteufel in the list archive, around April 2005: Roberto could use 2 GB with cwsdpmi and 3.24 GB with dpmione. The rest was probably reserved RAM for things like framebuffers, other MMIO, BIOS and ACPI, hibernate?
