- Title: DOS 3.2 Problem in G/NET (Rev. 4 Board) Shell Keyboard
- Buffer
-
- During testing it was discovered that overloading the keyboard buffer
- while using the Gateway G/NET (Rev. 4) board under DOS 3.2 may
- cause a stack overflow. This problem is resolved by increasing the
- number of stack frames to 9 and leaving the size at 128 bytes. This
- is done by creating a CONFIG.SYS file or modifying an existing
- CONFIG.SYS file and then including the following command within
- that file:
-
- STACKS = 9, 128
-
- It will of course, be necessary to reboot DOS and reload the shell to
- make this change effective. Detailed information is found in
- Appendix B of the IBM PC DOS 3.2 manual.
