Hello All,
In my IIgs, I can set the min/max size of a ram disk. I have 1024K of
ram available for a ram disk. However, ProDOS 8 v1.9 will only us 64K.
I have been reading about the prodos /RAM disk in a few books. Yeah.
However, is there a block driver available that will allow 8 bit prodos
to use all the extra IIgs ram as a ram disk?
I have also been reading about native and emulation 65816 programming.
I suppose I could write on (yet another project...), but I'm hoping that
someone else already has. I suspect that if I try to roll my own I'll
be bugging Mr. Empson a bunch :)
