<<Stuff about hard disk, maybe EMS 4.0 install bug>>


I just got my copy of EMS 4.0 and the developer docs this
Wednesday.  Gritting my teeth after seeing the Usenet articles, I
let it do its thing.  I had no problems with an AT&T 6300 outfitted
with a NEC V30 running at 8 MHz.  The drive is an ST-238 and OMTI
5527 RLL controller.  It seems like if anything is going to go
wrong this collection of hardware out to make the problem show up.

I set up the option of bypassing the extended memory test procedure
after warmboots.  Works well.  I really appreciate that, because 2
megs of RAM takes a while to check, even at 8 MHz.

I don't think I'd be too worried, if your hardware operates
resonalby stably with the normal DOS envrionment.
