Message-ID: <9103250733.AA19306@apple.com> Date: 25 Mar 91 07:24:45 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 10 I don't know about a DOS 3.3 /RAM, but I do know that ProDOS automatically sets up a /RAM if it recognizes the machine it's running on has 128k. It also sets up a /RAM# if there's a slinky type ramcard in a slot or port. Like, if you have a ramcard in slot 5 it's formatted as /RAM5. Unless you have files saved on /RAM, I think it says 7k used. This makes up the memory reserved for the volume directory and bitmap, I think. The ProDOS Tech. Ref. Manual goes into detail how to connect and disconnect /RAM, and there's a tech note that explains memory usage concerning /RAM. Andy.
