I came up against the same problem when trying to display a picture
who's bitmap was already in memory.  I didn't want that and the
screen's bitmap to be in memory at the same time.  What I ended up
doing was blitting the top 11 rasters or so to a temporary area and
then blitting them back after I'd opened the screen with the
CUSTOMBITMAP and SCREENQUIET flags set.  A little extra code, but it
saves gobs of chip memory.  (So much for SCREENQUIET working like
it's supposed to, huh?  ;-)
