	Does anyone have a patch for the AZTEC Shell (V2.4) that
allows it to use a drive unit #3.I'm trying to get amdos,a disk 3.5
and the C shell to all play together.

	My problem is that AMDOS partitions the disk 3.5 into 
2 400K partitions,the first is drive 1 and the second is drive 3.
The Aztec shell (v2.4) wont access drive unit 3 (the second partition).

	I need a patch to fix this.

	On a related topic,can anybody recommend and ramdisk 
software (for the aux 64k & dos 3.3) that doesnt use address
$BEAF? Address $BEAF is a conflicting address with amdos.

	BTW,I wrote a short C program to access drive 3 and it
worked,which means that amdos can access drive 3.The catalog()
function calls the dos file manager directly,bypassing the shell.
