When I mentioned that the mount and first reference to the recoverable
ram disk should be first in your startup-sequence I should have mentioned
that it's important. Why? The memory that your disk is sitting in has to be
kept away from AmigaDOS's greedy little hands. The mount does not actually
*do* anything except set up a relationship between the symbol vd0: and the
file asdg.vdisk.device. The ram disk is actually restored at the first
reference to the device.
