Ok... What if I were to call dobj=GetDiskObject(disk); ?
The GetDiskObject call returns a pointer to FAST ram, for gadget, diskobject
and image... I've tried to CopyMem(&dobj->do_Gadget.GadgetRender,&nimage,
sizeof(struct Image)); and I get a lock up!  Even in Manx SDB.
 
I figured that even thought the GetDiskObject returns FAST Ram memory,
All I'd have to do is just copymem it to another Image struct Allocated in
CHIP ram, and then redirect the dobj->do_Gadget.GadgetRender pointer to my
new Image struct.  this didn't work...
 
Is there a way to force GetDiskObject to return a pointer to CHIP ram?
