I did the Chris Erving memory hack which appeared in Amazing computing quite
some time ago, and now it's giving me problems.  In order to keep the slow
mem from auto-configuring, the board in the hack disables the memory on
reset and doesn't engage it until the light in df0: goes on.  The problem
is; when I boot from rad: it NEVER goes on!

I really don't want to open my machine again to have to fix this, so I
just need a question answered so I can do it in software:

How do I flash the drive light in df0: if there's no disk in there?  Can
somebody give me a 'c' code fragment to do this?

-thanks
