I've got a problem I hope someone can help me with (Dave?  You out
there?).

On my 1-meg 500 I used to be able to use DiskSalv 1.42 just fine.  Upon
upgrading to 1-meg of chip ram, however, DiskSalv chows on my memory.
Even using the LOMEM option, DiskSalv takes huge chunks of memory, until
the system locks up.  Even CTRL-D'ing to the startup shell isn't enough
memory for it.

What's the problem?  It worked fine with 512K of pseudo-fastmem.

What's an alternative Disk Salver for a 1-meg system?

Thanks so much,
