Ive recently run across an error message, and am sort of baffled by it.
But first. Of course, I run RT-11XM (v5.1) on a Pro-350 with 1.0 mb
of RAM (and SH CONFIG even reports 1024k of RAM). Ok, now my problem
is this: certian programs I run report back with a message similar to
to: ?KMON-F-Insufficent memory.

Two programs Ive had problems with. One is a file compression utility
called LZC.SAV (which I downloaded from a PDP-11 BBS that was posted
here awhile ago). 

The other is a version of Kermit that some on the net sent me. Now, 
on the Kermit, there is a little something called VBGEXE.SAV that 
loads and runs the Kermit (this Kermit and VBGEXE are all included 
on a boot disk which boots to RT v5.4)

Now, why is this? I have a full megabyte of memory, and this LZC.SAV 
program is just under 90 blocks long (90 blocks at a 512k block equals
46k). Is it perhaps linked in some special way?

Also, this above VBGEXE.SAV seems to only run under the RT v5.4. I tried
it under 5.1, and it gives me a monitor trap (and I dont have the money
to spend to uograde to v5.4:-)

Perhaps this LZC.SAV is meant to run only under a 'true' PDP-11 processor?
(I would hate to spend lots of LD calling to download stuff, and find out
later that I cant run it!)

Thanx in advance.
