Hi,

Where can I get a reasonably simple autoexec.bat for Freedos that will
load just the minimal things, and load things high when that's safe? I
don't need a mouse, keyboard, video, or other standard devices; it's just
A: (flash card used to hold my app), the packet driver for the ethernet
provided by the hardware, and my code.

Jack suggested the following, please try and consider which is the
best to help you to save conventional memory. Recently I try to help
someone but causing some problem here.


shellhigh=c:\command.com /e:512 /p=c:\fdauto.bat
device=c:\qhmboot.sys
dos=high,umb
device=c:\qdboot.sys   ;Optional, loads QDMA high with UMBPCI.
device=c:\umbpci.sys ;For packet DMA, may need EMM386!
devicehigh=c:\qhimem.sys /n32;Can be /n16 if XMS usage is low.
devicehigh=c:\qdma.sys /o /d /f /l   ;Optional, for use with overlays.
 .
 .
 .
fileshigh=12 ;Optional, can be adjusted.
buffers=8,0  ;Optional, can be adjusted.
stackshigh=9,256 ;DO NOT omit!  RISKY if so!
lastdrivehigh=c  ;If only diskette, use a.


I don't know if the Trick updated or not, please try.
BUFFERS=-1 will use less buffer.

Also, is there a way to kick the command interpreter out of memory? Once
my app runs, there is no return to the prompt - power cycle is the only
way out.

The traditional design of command.com was prepared to continue
running programs when your application quit (unlike Apple][), so I
have no idea how to kick it away.

Maybe you need a custom built command.com.


Rgds,
Johnson.

Re: [Freedos-user] QHIMEM 1.3

2006-04-23 Thread Scott Mayo
I'm getting closer to having my application ready to stick on a TS5500.

I'd like to compile it to use real mode, as that's probably simplest, and
it ought to fit easily in 640k. So my main concern is to push other stuff
into high memory, leaving low memory free for my code and data.

Where can I get a reasonably simple autoexec.bat for Freedos that will
load just the minimal things, and load things high when that's safe? I
don't need a mouse, keyboard, video, or other standard devices; it's just
A: (flash card used to hold my app), the packet driver for the ethernet
provided by the hardware, and my code.
