While we are at it,
i just tried a new virtualizer, called VirtualBox.
http://www.virtualbox.org/
Free and GNU.

During the tests, i noticed that Jemmex 5.63 produced a crash of VirtualBox.

Fortunately, v5.66 does not produce such a result, and the system seems to go fine with it.

VirtualBox has also other issues, such as Keyboard redirection, so i would rather suspect this program rather than Jemmex. Nevertheless, i figured it could be interesting to know.

It could be that the 16KB alignment you added in later version did the trick for this emulator compatibility...

Regards
