| I did this one using a Mark Williams RAM disk. I haven't look at it in
a while, but I don't recall doing anything special. I know it had to
auto-boot. I can't start Flight Simulator once GEM is running.

Im not farmiliar with Mark Williams RAM disk. From your above comment I
assume that you can auto boot the ram disk and tell it what to load and
then autostart ?
Thanks for the first answer Simon.

| Mark Williams C comes with a RAM disk generator program that creates RAM
disk programs that are PRE-LOADED with contents and become the BOOT
DEVICE when run. I created one that contained the contents of the
Flight Simulator disk and booted it, and it worked.

| 1015.4 | Just what I needed but ? | BRUMMY::LUMMIS | OOPPSS the fans stopped ! | Wed Nov 21 1990 06:45 | 9 |
| Thats just what I wanted to here Jeff , now all I need to do is find a
MW Ram Disk. Jeff have you done much flying on FSII ?
The reason I wanted to load FSII into ramdisk was because while flying
the disply stops while the ST reads the next chunk of senery data into
memory. The next question is how would you get an optional senery disk
to load ... put it in the ram disk at the begining I guess.
Thanks and Regards Simon.
