Hello All,

I am running DJGPP 1.2 and go32 1.12 on a 486DX4-100 with 16MB of RAM.

The system has been running with out a hitch for the last couple of
months. Last night when I added more source code ( I am compiling about
20 C-files into an executable ) I got the following error message :

	DPMI: Not enough memory ( 0x002d0000 bytes )
	robot.c : In function 'determine_beacon_':
	robot.c : virtual memory exhausted

Section 15.3 of the FAQ states :
	.... include swapfile = parameter to establish a virtual memory
	swap file; ..... make it permanent with the /p option.

	( What are the parameters that should go there ? Where do I
	  get an example of this from ).

Section 3 of the FAQ states :
	If you have more than 8MB of RAM
	*
	*
	* install RAM disk with size 1.5MB and point your TMPDIR
	  environment to it.

	( How does one create a RAM disk ? )

I would appreciate any pointers to solutions to my question.

Thank you,                                                  Q Q  \)
