I saw a DA that was supposed to save a Ram Disk at crash time. it 
was called CrashFix. Saw it on MacQueue I.

Also, I know of another way to save the Ram Disk (I use RamStart, too).

I use RamStart a lot (esp with LSC mucking around). If stuck in some loop
(i.e Dumb programmer mistake, hang, etc - yea, yea so I forgot to put 
an exit in the program).  Hit the Programmer's Switch (into that goofy 
Dialog Box or MacsBug) and type:    
	SM 0 A9F4     
	G 0

This does a jump to the Finder (me thinks).
