Programs should not be confusing the Prodos 64K /RAM volume with any other /RAM volume - after all, I would suppose that a program would just remove whatever volume it found in slot 3, drive 2 or somesuch. What we need is to have programs to put /RAM back where they found it! And, on the flip side, programs which NEED /RAM (you know who you are) shouldn't hiccup or stutter when /RAM is missing!
