Ok, I made a minimal CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT on hardware 2 and
messed around with "shadow" (and "cached" where there was such an
entry) for BIOS and Video and Adapter. No change. Any other ideas?
What memory ranges should I exclude?
Additionally I discovered that "redir -eo info|less" doesn't
crash. Perhaps this should have been expected, but it was a surprise
to me.
Minimal CONFIG.SYS:

DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
BUFFERS=30,0
FILES=50

DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\RAMDRIVE.SYS 4096 /E
SHELL = C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS /p /e:1024
COUNTRY=046,850,C:\DOS\COUNTRY.SYS
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\DISPLAY.SYS CON=(EGA,,1)

Minimal AUTOEXEC.BAT:
