[comp.os.msdos.programmer] dos memory question

skumar@cbnewsh.att.com (swaminathan.ravikumar) (10/30/90)

is there a version of dos that runs under protected mode (386)? that
is, it uses a flat addressing mechanism. no added features,
like os2. if one exists then there won't be a need for dos extenders. 
also, is it doable or am i asking an impossible thing and if so
why?

can any one help.

thanks.
