I seem to remember there was a way to get an OS/2 DOS session to have
even more than 640k conventional memory, using tricks in the config.sys
and in the DOS session settings. But, I know I can't remember it now.
Once place to start would be in the config.sys. Make sure DOS= line is
HIGH,UMB
There was other tricks, but I can't remember them and a quick google
search didn't turn anything up. But I'll keep looking.
