This program is a recoverable ram disk. Yes, another one!
The difference between this and other PD disks is that it supports
up to 32 units and can be auto-booted in Kickstart 1.3. The extra
units allow you to mount one bootable device (which must be a normal
DOS unit) and another unit for your work which can use the
FastFileSystem. You might even mount a third unit for fast disk
copies, if you have the memory.
This ram disk differs from RAD: in that unused sectors are deleted
from memory, therefore, you won't be tying up valuable memory with
empty junk. This ram disk may be formatted, copied to, or used just
like a normal disk drive. Your LED light will flash on and off as
ram disk activity occurs.
