Paul,

Are you interested in thuis stuff ? :-

>I found that IBM386FS that someone had uploaded to hobbes for a short

; useallmem = [yes|no]
;    This parameter specifies whether the 386 HPFS should use memory above the
;    16M boundary, provided this system is configured with more than 16M.
;    Some adapters, for example the IBM Token Ring Busmaster Server/A, cannot
;    do direct memory access (DMA) to memory above the 16M boundary.  If you
;    have a LAN or disk adapter that cannot do DMA to memory above the 16M
;    boundary, the 386 HPFS must use only memory below 16M so that the adapter
;    can put data into the file system buffers.  Set useallmem to yes if all
;    of your adapters can access memory above the 16M boundary. Set useallmem
;    to no if any of your LAN or disk adapters cannot access memory above the
;    16M boundary.  If useallmem is not specified, the default setting is no.
