[Freedos-devel] defrag

2006-08-08 Thread Imre Leber

I also read this in RBIL and changed it temporarily to find the /NOX2MAX32 bug and somehow this version has found the way in the Emm386 being uploaded. But even MS Himem clears BL if it returns AX=1, so there should be no need to modify anything. Also the call to INT67/3F was also commented

Hello Eric, In summary, I would say it might be nice to have a command line option lock a20 to on for emm386, for example after FreeDOS 1.0 is done. You should do some benchmarks on a slow 386sx PC in the meantime ;-). By the way, it also might be nice to have an option turn a20 on now and
