Simple Question?

I have an IBM 386 with 4Meg total memory (640=Dos, 3328=Extended)
I am running C++ under Dos 4.00 - I have BorlandC, but I would prefer to 
dodge object orientated at this stage.

Q: I wish to construct a simple list which may require >2 Meg
   of memory. Is there a simple way to generate this list - I was
   hoping that mallocing a new pointer would find my free memory, but this 
   doesn't appear to be so.
