yeah it runs out of ram early into flagdefs.cpp.

I'm not really surprised. that file is super-complicated.
I'd need to shard the CPP file to make this work. ugh, compiler partitioning

admittedly I already do that because BRAZIL crashes it even on DOSBox with like 64mb of ram

it's running out of RAM 2064 lines into a 1217-line file.

makes sense

so I need to do one of:
1. rebuild VGAPride to have fewer flags per definition file.
2. convert it to compile at the command line and hope that provides more RAM (I need to do this anyway)
3. upgrade the RAM of my 386

I could try making a bootdisk but this system is already pretty minimal. No CD-ROM, sound, or network drivers. Maybe if I lower the number of files/stacks?

looks like I have room for 2 more 30-pin SIMMs.
Maybe another 4 on top of that if I solder in some new sockets

I don't know where my 30-pin simms are. hmm.
