Just slap it in and install the A2.RAMCARD device driver and there it is.
You can't use it as system memory so it's good as a RAM disk only. You have
to set the slot it's in to your card of course. I have an Apple slinky card
in slot 5 and a superdrive card in slot 6. One handy feature (if there's
1 mb of memory on the card) is the device driver lets you format the RAM disk
as 1 mb or as 800K. Handy for unpacking those infernal disk archives which
some people still make.
