I have 2Mb of ram in term of ram chips

They all crash with the unsupported int 0x06 message.
When running gcc with no parameters, used physical memory is 124K and 
remaining physical memory is 1324K at crash. The topline display
scrolls very fast so I have to use the pause button to read. 

The same problem as above when running gcc hello.c. Memory usage is the same
as above.

When running ar with no parameters, used memory is 104K and available 
memory is 1344K at crash.

When running info same problem.
used physical memory is 184K and remaining physical memory is 1264K at 
crash.

At no time did available physical memory go below 1200K before or at 
crash time.

My autoexec.bat file doesn't show the setup of the environment variables. 
I setup the environment variables for djgpp through a seperate batch file.
