Hi,
computer system:
IIgs, Rom 3, 4 meg ram card, 80meg hard drive (scsi).
I would like to know if this is possible. I have been reading up on
FLashBoot software to enable my 4 meg ram as a ramdrive. What i would like
to do is use my ramdisk (max 2400k storage thru flashboot) to hold system
6.0.1, but instead of creating the flashboot image disk on 3.5 diskette, i
would like to put these created image disks on the hard drive and when i
boot the computer up, i want it to access the image disk and ultimately use
the flashboot ramdisk to boot up system 6.0.1. Is this possible? Or should
i leave the system 6.0.1 on physical hard drive? I basically want to test
the speed of the ramdrive upon loading a maxed out system 6.0.1 with
accessories and compare that to my hard drive speed. Any feedback will
always be appreciated, thanks.
