LxLite can help in a lot of cases, but not all. Also keep in mind that
Dallas was basically a Warp3 user, so his kernels and DLLs were smaller.
He was probably trying to build a bootable single diskette setup.

BootECS works fine for those with more or less vanilla hardware. I also
works fine for those that are willing to put the time into finding out how
to get everything to fit. Those that don't understand the dependencies
will have trouble getting the driver order correct in both config.sys and
on the diskettes.

TTBOMK, BootECS is BootOS2 renamed. There are no functional differences.
