No, FreeBSD is a fully 32 bit OS. There is no dual memory map, or anything like multiple memory models from DOS. > > Thanks for your insights, > Steve Harris > ============================================================================ Chuck Robey chuckr@eng.umd.edu -- I run FreeBSD on n3lxx and Journey2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Dilbert Zone is Dilbert's new WWW home!
