Here's the latest version of Takayuki Karahashi's RAM disk, a simple,
elegant, fully functional CDEV/INIT for creating a RAM disk. Its great
for all you poor souls out there who, like me, have plenty of memory
but still only two floppies and no hard drive. You just put a copy of
it in your system folder, open the control panel, select the name and
size of the RAM disk, close the control panel, and reboot. The RAM
disk is installed automatically at startup. I have been using it with
both Finder 6.1 and Multifinder 6.0.1 on a 2.5 Mb Mac Plus running
System 6.0.2.
N.B. - If you have RAM Disk 1.0 still around, replace it ASAP with the
new version (1.1). Version 1.0 has a bug that can reformat anything in
your external drive if you boot without a hard disk. Please spread
the word about the upgrade to anyone else you know who uses RAM disk.
