  Is there any way to allocate memory that is not swappable ?
I seem to remember you could do this under OS/2 1.3, but I
can find that support in 2.0.  I need to be able to 
allocate a large block of memory and keep it in physical memory,
for testing low memory conditions.

  I would rather not have to write a device driver to do this.

  Thanks
