Hi Eric, > BUFFERS are always in the HMA as soon as FreeDOS uses the HMA > (DOS=HIGH) unless the BUFFERS are too many to fit in the HMA.
Yes, I saw/read this. > Of course one could make BUFFERHIGH a synonym for BUFFERS? ;-) That's the point. Personally, I would appreciate this as a "solution" (or let me better say "feature") ;-). > As far as I remember, FILESHIGH / LASTDRIVEHIGH is something > from "Windows 95/98 DOS" which puts the data structures in > question into UMB, not into HMA...? I just installed MS-DOS 6.22 and it is not aware of BUFFERSHIGH, FILESHIGH etc. as you remembered correctly. Ok, may be related to Windows 9x... It's been a while since I worked with these operating systems ;-).
