Wonder if anyone ever experienced this.

   After setting up device=vdisk.sys 360
   on my xt with 640K, punching a long string of keys
   (until key buffer overflows, eg. at prompt level)
   gives a long beep (which is normal) and a message :

   INTERNAL STACK FAILURE : SYSTEM HALTED

   which is not.   The 8088 was chucked out a long time ago
   and replaced with a v20.  I tried 2 keyboards and the same
   thing happened.  So, I guess it can't be the keyboard.
