I finally got One answer to this(and several more questions about how I was advised to do this!), so instead of replying by E-mail, I post this: A Pat Palmer said, that Rob Pecks' book The Amiga Companion said (not-isomorph-quote follows) This is controlled by entry BufMemType in the mountlist. 4 or 5 means exp.
