Who cares whether VIRTUAL_MEM or :PHYSICAL_MEM is the default? Just have it be user selectable, :ala Fastmemfirst and nofastmem. That way, you can run a program, :and if it doesn't like virtual memory, you can reboot and select :VirtualMemLast or whatever... : : just my $.000002 : :-Bruce Rogers (currently u555917504ea@minnie.ucdavis.edu) I think everyone is agreed that that would be even worse! You can't use select something like that. But I agree... which flag is used is just a minor convenience and the one that provides the most compatibility is the one that should be used (gee, guess which one that is? hint: V) -Matt
