I know this has been on here before, but can't quite remember how. How do I get RAD: to work with more than 512K chip ram?? -Todd 871579l@aucs

When I look exec-disassembly (for 1.2) there was tiny bug, which cause system to recognize 1Meg chip-ram, but never warmboot with it. I think this may cause some problems when using recoverable ramdisks. -- pl@tut.fi !

This is presumably what "setpatch r" fixes. It installs a patch which hangs around after a reboot (in fact, VirusX 3.2 flags it as a suspicious value for one of the reboot vectors).

Adam Levin (CATS SUPPORT) once said,
"Use a lower case 'R' as in
SetPatch >NIL: r
and your RAD: will reboot..."
Upon discovering this, I said, "OH S*&%%$!!!!! That's Why!",
and proceeded to change my startup-sequence. Note that the
documentation for SETPATCH only mentions "R", as in upper case.
