Maybe you can give me a hand. Just got a FATMAC, and am impressed.
However, I cannot get the ramdisk to work. I have it on the boot disk,
and I double click it. When it returns, a 2nd disk is sitting there,
and if one opens it, then there is an empty folder and 318k (i think)
free. Most things I try to copy by dragging the icon fail with the
mess COPY UNSUCCESSFUL, TRY ANOTHER DISK. If the file did copy correctly,
then it either bombs when you run it (ID=10), or upon exiting, the
ram disk has all the icons destroyed, and the file names changed to garbage.
Doing anything else causes a fatal system restart.

Any suggestions? I am doing something wrong, or do I have a defective mac ?

Thanks.

Paul.
