I began to read the manual on MANX C. I was hoping to run MANX, on a vanilla A2000 ( with (1) floppy, and (1)meg of ram, and using VD0:). In reading the section, on setting up for one floppy drive, they suggest to trim the SYS1: disk to use this as a workspace. This seems stupid, I have at least one meg of Ram, could I not just put the libs and my C source code in VD0:? This would decrease access to the drive and hopefully increase compile and link time. Here is my question, to anyone with a helpful hint on working on a 1 drive system, (and NO I cannot afford anymore HARDWARE!), ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? How can I setup my MANX C compiler with my current system, what startup-sequence is best, how can I use SET commands to help in finding the important libs and include's. Could I also put SDB, either on the SYS disk or in VD0, Is Ronald Reagan really ALive? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Any help in this problem, would be much appreciated, Please only send me mail do NOT repost or follow-up. And if you are wondering why I did not figure this one out myself, I am too lazy to figure out all the details myself, especially if someone else already knows the answer. --DvBlaze
