Under DR DOS 6.0 on an Epson Equity 386SX Plus:  if I enable the
EMM386.SYS memory manager in CONFIG.SYS, the control-alt-DEL sequence no
longer does a warm boot - instead, it locks up the machine.

Fiddling around with the EMM386.SYS options doesn't seem to make any
difference.

Is this a known problem with the EMM386 provided with DR DOS?  Specific
to the BIOS used in the Epson?  Recommendations and suggestions,
anybody?
