RE: EMC Help

I have EMC running on both an AMD K6-350 and an Intel Pentium 200 MMX. Other
than setting up the run and ini file with values to reflect the different
memory in each everything else is the same. I am even running the K-6 on a
kernel compiled for a Pentium instead of the 386 as suggested. Doesn't seem
to make a difference.
