Since everybody tells me I can forget about my RAM (EMS) and Harddisk, I was wondering if it would be possible to have the 386 connected to the XT, with a device driver running on the 386 which controls a RAM-disk on the XT, the harddisk and the floppy-drives. Is there anybody who has been working on something like this, or who has another solution? Please e-mail. H.P. Harmsen. (harmsen@cs.vu.nl)
