I have Locksmith 6.0, revision A. Its fast disk backup does use
all 64k of auxiliary RAM, but not the RamFactor.
 
This is strange because page 15 of the manual says:
 
    "RAM boards from several manufacturers, including CheckMate Technology,
    Applied Engineering, and Titan Technologies have been tested with LS
    6.0 and word well."
 
(I think Locksmith 5.0 was the one that was only compatible with
language-card-like RAM cards.)
 
It also says LS will use 16 through 256k RAM cards, and that may be
the problem... splitting the RamFactor in 256k partitions didn't help,
though.
 
Do you know where I could upgrade my LS 6.0A to 6.0B? I didn't know about
that version.
