Hi Ralf,
the tests I did showed that FreePascal is perfectly capable of producing
reasonably small binaries fitting the small memory model, if you do not
require the full language feature set (stay away from ObjFpc / Delphi
modes). SysUtils and exception handling pulls in a significant amount

Rarely. And I do.
The thing that is more interesting for me is how the person really

If you have a windows or Linux machine at hand, you might want to
check with pcem. It can emulate several 286 BIOS/board variants. That
would give you a hint if it might be a problem with your board or the
286 architectur in general.

I want to build the FreeDOS Kernel.
I use Dosbox in Ubuntu Linux and watcom comiler from FreeDOS, version 1.9.
I changed config.b to use watcom and copied to config.bat, then start with
buildall.bat.
The compilation hangs in BOOT/boot.asm:437 Warning Must update constant
offset (17Bh)...
What did
