	I am running dos 4.01 on one of my machines and I get a warning at
boot time that I should load share.exe for large media.  When I look at the
manual entry for share I can find no justification for loading it because I
have large media.  Can anyone explain why I should load it or better yet
tell me why I should not?

Text of message:
WARNING! SHARE should be loaded for large media

I have a 386SX clone with a Conner 100Meg drive in one huge partition.

	Thanks,
	Martin O. Gates
