Safe mode still causes a memory error; this can be fixed by using option 4 (step by step), allowing himemx.exe to run to claim memory, then answering “load all device drivers” with NO.

Alternatively, it appears that safe mode uses the file “system.cb” as a system.ini file. Adding the MaxPhysPage setting there might work too.
