As I understand it, RamStart makes the mac think the RamDisk is on
AppleTalk so the mac probably has a hard time with the real AppleTalk.
The solution is perhaps that a new ramdisk program is needed to get
a ramdisk up in conjunction with AppleTalk - but why is this a 
necessity in the first place?  Couldn't you run from a normal floppy?
