With stable kernel, I get screenfulls of garbage I can't read
(no newlines) with VDS, normal operation without.
UDMA2 still appears to fix it!
Appears to mean that UDMA2 blocks the VDS calls because it comes before
EMM386 loads so disk accesses bypass UMB's and VDS, which is effectively
the same result as as not using VDS as an EMM386 parameter. Doesn't help
really, as far as determining your system incompatibility. Or Bernd's for
that matter.
I've seen the E000 to E000 page frame message myself. It's extremely
intermittent. Can't see why it would happen, but it's never obliged when
debugging.
Of course, maybe the whole thing means that there is memory corruption
somewhere, which could trash the VDS revector and the page frame
locate. But it's never shown itself as a real entity.
