As I am about to obtain a 2MB RAM board for my Amiga, I have been pondering the best way to make use of it. Obviously, it would be ideal to simply copy my entire two development disks to RAM: and have EVERYTHING work out of RAM, but all that copying must take hours (from floppy) every time I'd need to reboot. I do have another thought that might work, though. I will try adding 1788 (or whatever) disk buffers to both DF1: and df0: and I would hope that this would mean an incremental process in which the first time I use anything, it will go to disk, and then it will be in RAM until I have to reboot. On the other hand, it might also be nice to boot from two floppies, have a bunch of stuff copied to RAM:, then I could use two other floppies (without all the stuff I need to boot up) and have lots of disk space on line at a time. Anyone else out there have RAM yet? What have you found that works?
