IMHO, the most stable DR-DOS is 6.0 (4/92 edition, with updates). You
can't squeeze the absolute maximum conventional memory with it, but
it's very compact and very stable (even EMM386 works properly!).   <g>

BTW, if you need DPMI for it, use CWSDPMI (sp?) ...

Not sure about licensing, though!   :-(

Joe.
