  DJGPP uses only a flat 32-bit memory model.  It's kind of like the
  tiny model except not restricted to 16-bits of memory space.  This
  will allow you to not worry about memory models anymore.  I suggest
  you find some documentation on what protected mode is all about, so
  you can use DJGPP better.

  [in other words...]

  CS, DS, ES & SS have the same base address.

  There should be a FAQ especially for converts from Borland.
