Different command processors have different limitations on command line. I believe Win9x has a limitaion of 255 which can be fixed by using /E:??? switch... which BTW is used in oemapp.bat. Are you launching this from Win9x or WinNT/2K/XP because I know command line size is much bigger in NT/2K/XP. I launch 8i OEM console on Win2K via oemapp.bat without any errors.
