Hello!

until yesterday, I used the freedos kernel build 2024c
together with dosemu-1.0.2. With this environment, the 
appended program shows that one byte in main memory allocated
by malloc() is altered as soon as a key is pressed. This byte 
contains the ascii code of the pressed character. With build 2029,
the problem is gone, but others arise:

- Printing does no more work
- my application uses the dos_findfirst/findnext functions
  to find files on diskette which does not work anymore

I would be happy with 2024c, but I have to fix the
problem described above. Does someone maybe know where the code
resides that is responsible for the overwriting of the
main memory?

        int i,j,k;

        for(i=0;i<SEGMENTS;i++)
        {
                printf("malloc segment %d\n",i+1);
                segments[i]=(int *)malloc(SIZE);
                if(segments[i]==NULL)
                {
                        printf("malloc error\n");
                        exit(1);
                }
                for(j=0;j<SIZE/sizeof(int);j++)
                        segments[i][j]=0;
        }

        k=1;
        for(;;)

                                if(segments[i][j]!=0)
                                {
                                        
printf("segments[%d][%d]=%d\n",i,j,segments[i][j]);
                                }
                        }
                }
                k++;
        }
        return 0;
}
