What a limit. ^ 4G (I think) Yes, one segment in the 386 is the same as the whole 68020. > What size segmentation would you like? The current virtual address space the 386 can address is 64T, but the huge address space has to be accessed through segment (4G max). How about a single segment of 64T ? > > /Carl > ...decvax!mcnc!unccvax!cbenda -mkt
