I have been having repeated problems with GS/OS and my battery-backed up
RAMfactor.  GThese problems did not occur under System Disk 3.2 but are
showing up under GS/OS.  I am using the RAMfactor aZs the System Disk
that I boot from.  Everything works fine for a few days, and then problems
develop.  Mr. Fixit cannot fix the problems because the Block # is oiuut of rang
e.Eventually, the RAMdisk is corrupted and I have to re-initialize it and copy
the system files back onto it.  It does not seem to affect particular files
although my ICON folder's files have been messed up and the Finder shows
pixels of the wrong color.
My RAM card is OK according to the AE test utility.  This has happened
four times so far and I keep having to Initialize the RAM card and copInstall
the mnenew System Files.
Can anyone help me find the problem??
