|    WG2.0, in a VM. Running out of interrupt    |
|    07 Apr 07 10:11:35    |
      From: thorin@ptd.net              So ive overcome some hurdles, and i have WG2.0 running inside a vmware VM.              The current setup:       Dos 7.1, a single 2gb drive (virtual). I can allow it any amount of ram       i'd like. Its currently at 84MB. Smartdrive, and emm386 are loaded on       boot.              When i launch the board, it comes up, and accepts calls (telnet).       However, if i try to open a local session, the board crashes and i get       an error stating that the system ran out of interrupt stacks.       This is a BASE install, all i've added is majortcp/ip, and my globals. I       get the feeling that if i add any more modules the board wotn even load.              Ive tried lowering the ram to 16Mb, as i'm told that wg plays better on       that amount of ram. It didnt work any better.              My config.sys sets the stacks as such:       STACKS=15,256       I've tweaked that somehwat, it started as 9,256.              Im trying to get it running in a VM for management reasons. I'd like to       be able to remotely access the machine that its running on, but WG2 runs       on Dos, which makes it hard to access remotely, except under the board,       through ftp or whatever. I'd like to be able to remote in, and access       the console. VMware seemed tobe the best way to accomplish this.              Unless someone has a solutiuon, i think i'm going to end up wiping the       whole server, and just installing dos locally, and running the board as       it was meant to be run. Inside the primary OS. Maybe i can coax it into       working under Win98, or something still primarily dos-like, that       supports something like VNC server.              Thanks for any suggestions.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
