I recently decided to build myself a nice a fast DOS machine to fiddle
with and installed FreeDOS 1.2.

I installed Borland Pascal 7 and tried to use it.  Nope. :(

When I run "bp" which is the protected mode compiler, I get this:

Unhandled exception 000E at 0020 A19E ErrCode 0002.

Google only dredged up decade+ issues that were never resolved.

I noticed that if I let it boot using the default boot option, bp would
fail, but not if I used "option 2".

Option 1 (the default) is:
Load FreeDOS with JEMMEX, no EMS (most UMBs), max RAM free

Option 2 is:
Load FreeDOS with EMM386 (Expanded Memory) and SHARE loaded.

Is the default option known to cause issues with DPMI software like the
protected mode Borland Pascal compiler?

tnx.
