Still trying to get a 440k rad: drive.

I did some expermenting.  First, I made the 1st 2 lines of my startup sequence
file as thus:
c:mount rad:
c:copy c:ls rad:

And then tried various values for HiCyl.  The bottom line is I got up to 35
before weirdness set in.  Along the way, I also discovered that my rad: 
device was coming out of CHIP RAM!!!!!  No matter how big this sucker is, I
definitely want it in FAST ram.  BTW, I tried inserting
"SYS:system/FastMemFirst" as the first line, but it changed nothing.  Can
anybody (please?) tell me how to make my rad: come from fast ram?

Thank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank you
