Which RAM drive?

Post by t0nyt »

I'm currently testing running my QL without the Trump Card (it has Qimsi & vDrive attached)

At boot I'm loading TK2 2.34 and running TK2_ext (I also load SUB extension & vDrive tools)

But I don't have any RAM disk functionality without the Trump card (I get "not found" when I try "format ram1_255" or "format ram1_mdv1" etc.)

Could anyone recommend which Ramdisk driver I should use please?

The format ram1_mdv1 imaging functionality is the most important piece of the puzzle for me

I've seen in some threads, while searching, that "if you have TK2 you have RAM disks", but I don't seem to

Many thanks

Have installed ramprt (from qpac2 supplementary) for now and it seems to do the things I need

Are there any other utilities/functions I should consider loading at boot to get the best out of using the file system please?

Many thanks

Recently I was commenting on something related to ramdisk in another thread, but it is a ROM that incorporates TK2 and RAM, and I have some doubts about it.
