	Several months ago, mention was made on this mailing list of an
undocumented RAM disk built into VMS (apparently so a system could be brought
up for diagnostics without disks). Some people at my company are now intensely
interested in this, and of course I did not keep copies of that traffic. So:

- Where in the fiche (we are using version 4.1/4.2) do I look?
- Has anyone been using it successfully?
- Anyone know if it is likely to suddenly vanish in the next update?

	Send the replies to me directly (oc.trei@cu20b.arpa) or to the whole
list as you see fit.
					thanks in advance,
