Since OS/2 isolates each application (and session) from each other
this clearly is not a C-Kermit bug. However, it might be a bug in
Os/2 VMDISK handling.
My only thought is that one of the device drivers you are loading in the
Virtual Machine that you are creating with VMDISK is accessing
some hardware that is causing an IRQ conflict of some kind.
What kind of connection are you using?
