For instance, if you do not have all your code pages in core, and you eject the CD, and you go to fault a page, it will blue-screen (you can see this by putting in the MSVC++ CDROM, getting the install screen, ejecting the CDROM, and then moving the mouse over one of the buttons). Apparently, Windows95 does not obey the "preload" section attribution. Which is OK, because neither does FreeBSD (FreeBSD doesn't have the concept of paging an unmodified image from swap -- unmodified images are always paged from their vnodes).
