Oh! Many different ones. The one that is running right now, I downloaded by
rsync today and compiled. That makes it version 0.9.64-pre<something>
right? I don't know if I managed to get your latest patch though. But I
don't use virtual memory in mol-MacOS anyway so it should not matter.

I currently use version 2.4.18 from kernel.org with the little extra patch
that Marcello forgot about.

Thanks for taking note on my mail and answering. I am truly amazed that you
have managed to build such a competent emulator almost single-handedly. I
wish I had the skill and the time to help you out. Keep up the good work!

Best wishes
Ove
