I have a Mega 2. How can I create a Ram Disk greater than 999k?
Can I use Eternal2 to create a Ram Disk greater than 999k?

Two products I know which let one create large ram disks are: Shadow (from Antic, reset proof on a Mega) Hybriswitch (from Hybrid Arts, and I think there is a shareware version of it floating around, also reset proof on Mega). Hope that helps a bit! > Gregory Gibson > gibson@trwrb.UUCP > -- > Gregory Gibson > {...ihnp4,ucbvax}!trwrb!gibson --Dean ---- Dean Brunette {ucbvax,etc.}!hplabs!oliveb!olivej!dragon Olivetti Advanced Technology Center _____ _____ __|__ _____ 20300 Stevens Creek Blvd. | | _____| | | Cupertino, CA 95014 |_____| |_____| |__ |_____ 'Dancing, screaming, itching, squealing, fevered feeling hot Hot HOT!'

With eternal2 you can use the spec <drive>fff (or <drive>???, I can't remember which) to get the max size. I have gotten eternal2 to work with the MEGA ROMS as follows: 1. To resize: Hold both the alternate key AND the right shift down. 2. To remove: Hold both the left shift key AND the right shift key down. I have no idea why one must hold down the right shift key. According to my documentation this should not be necessary. It is not necessary to do so using the earlier versions of TOS.
