Re: AE RAMKEEPER?



 Tward couldn't help but dribble back at Mitchell:

  > DMA compatible;
 TC| The Ramkeeper will not do DMA at all if you've got two cards on
   | it. I don't know how it would handle a single card with more than
   | 4MB, I never tried it. There were rumors of a DMA daughterboard

I have a RAMkeeper in my system, holding an AE GSRAM Ultra and a SeqSys
RAM GS (both cards 4 meg), and the RAM GS has DMA.  I have the DMA
turned on in my RamFast SCSI and I haven't had any problems therein.

[Notice:  I didn't say that the Keeper could or couldn't do DMA, just
that I haven't had any problems with using a DMA card in it.  And I
can't answer the question about using a >4M card in the Keeper.  My
Keeper's card setup isn't depicted in the manual, by the way.]
