- The RAMbrant source code was never published. It was sold through the
- Antic Catalog. BTW, a lot of software uses memory locations required by
- SpartaDOS (if that is what is running on your harddrive) and are tough to
- patch. How up are you on your machine language (hex codes as opposed to
- assembler)? If you own a disk editor with hex search capability, you may
- be able to track down the CIO calls and change the drive number - still no
- guarantee that it will run under your DOS however....
