Still trying to get a 440k rad: drive. I did some expermenting. First, I made the 1st 2 lines of my startup sequence file as thus: c:mount rad: c:copy c:ls rad: And then tried various values for HiCyl. The bottom line is I got up to 35 before weirdness set in. Along the way, I also discovered that my rad: device was coming out of CHIP RAM!!!!! No matter how big this sucker is, I definitely want it in FAST ram. BTW, I tried inserting "SYS:system/FastMemFirst" as the first line, but it changed nothing. Can anybody (please?) tell me how to make my rad: come from fast ram? Thank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank youThank you Dave Schaumann dave@cs.arizona.edu
