I've run into some trouble with zoo and was hoping someone could help me
out. 

I've used zoo to backup my 32MB C drive which resulted in a 11.9MB zoo file.
Unfortunately now I cannot retrieve all of the files from the archive.  When
trying to extract an old copy of my autoexec.bat I get the following:

     F:\> zoo e disk_c autoexec.bat
     Zoo: FATAL: Ran out of memory.

This file and the others I have tried to extract are near the end of the
archive.  I have been able to extract a file from the first half of the
archive.

When running zoo I have 545KB of memory available.  I am using zoo 2.1 on an
NCR PC-916 (80386).

Does anyone know how to get around this problem?  If not does anyone know
what the breaking point is for zoo, how many files can I put in before it
chokes on extraction?
