<Mmmmmm, tasty> I just installed Landon Dyer's PD ramdisk tonight. It works admirably, but I thought I'd pass along some installation tips so you folks don't waste as much time as I did. The instructions say to assemble, link, and relmod the program. Do just like he says, but for the link, do something like: link68 [u] ramdisk.68k=ramdisk This will link the ramdisk without the GEM or desk accessory stuff. It won't work with that stuff included. I discovered the problem when I used a public domain "cc" program to do everything, and it assumed I was linking a normal program which needs all the GEM junk linked in. The linker whimpered about _main being undefined, and the program got two 'shrooms when I tried to run it. I got the same results when I tried to link in the desk accessory stuff. Landon's program doesn't need all that stuff the rest of us mortals take for granted. -- Mike Hojnowski UUCP: ..rochester!moscom!jgpvax!mqh CSNET: "moscom!jgpvax!mqh"@ritcv
