I just got my GS SAUCE card and installed 4 1 Meg SIMMS on it, so I have 4.25 Megs of Memory. I tried to create a Prosel-16 script to copy the essential system files to /RAM5. My problem is that I can't get Prosel to format the RAM drive. I did insert a jump to the UTILs, and I can manually format the drive. However, once all the system files are copied, the "boot 0" doesn't boot the RAM disk... what I get is the startup screen, then $$/$$$$: (the $ are some Hex addresses) Sometimes I just get one of these addresses, sometimes I get a never ending loop of one address over and over. Whar am I mising? I read through the Dox, and I didn't see anything about passing certain paramaters to the UTILs. Is there some way to format a disk from within a scipt file? On another note, is there anyway to dump GS/OS out of memory? I was trying to launch Prosel-8 from Prosel-16, but GS/OS was still in memory, can I get rif of it once it's installed without rebooting? -- | kreme@nyx.cs.du.edu |Growing up leads to growing old, and then to dying, and| |---------------------|dying to me don't sound like all that much fun. | | The voice of the majority is no proof of justice.
