Message-ID: <729@ivucsb.UUCP> Date: 15 Apr 89 02:35:01 GMT Organization: The Audio Club at UCSB, Isla Vista, California Lines: 18 I've noticed in the manuals that you can't get 4 MB of RAM into a unixpc using a COMBO board at 1 1/2 MB plus a 1/2 MB card. Can this be done? (I think I recall someone talking about modifying the 1/2 MB card... please email me those instructions if anyone has them). Actually, what I'm really after is a 1/2 MB RAM disk. I'd like to prevent UNIX from knowing that I have the extra card and write a RAM disk driver (maybe mount at /fast). Anyone done this? Actually, what would really be nice is to get your machine to get the full 4 MB and THEN add yet another 1/2 MB RAM card for a RAM disk, but I think this can't be done. Any ideas? -- -Todd Day- UUCP: {pyramid, ucbvax}!ucsbcsl!nessus!ivucsb!todd Internet: todd%ivucsb.UUCP@anise.acc.com
