ram3 -- disable/enable ram drive (EXTERNAL) [v1.1] Written by Jeff Ding
syntax: ram3 {[-r] [-f]} {[-a] [-vxxxxx] [-ixx]}
ex: ram3
ram3 -r -f
ram3 -a
ram3 -a -v65280 -i15
'ram3' is used to disable the ram driver in slot 3 drive 2. Once
disabled, you can then use the auxiliary memory in your computer
for programs or for double hi-res.
'ram3' with no options will tell you if it is installed or not.
Other options are as follows:
-r: remove -- This option will remove the driver in slot 3 drive
2. You will be notified and asked to remove the volume if it
is not empty. If the vector or the identification of
the ram driver is different from the standard, it will be
printed along with a message stating the driver has been
removed. See -v and -i for the description of the vector
and identification. Be sure to keep track of these values
so that when you want to re-install the driver you can use
the original values.
-f: force removal -- This option used in connection with the
-r option will remove the driver even if the volume is
not empty. Use this option with caution!
-a: add -- This option alone will re-install the standard ProDOS
64k /ram driver. This option alone will not work on a II+ because
it does not have the necessary auxiliary memory and driver. If you
want to install a driver for a third party ram card on a II+, you
must use the -a option in conjunction with the -v option.
-v: vector -- This option used in connection with the -a option
will allow you to install a driver at a specific location
xxxxx. This vector points to the entry point of the driver
routine. The location for the standard /ram driver is 65280.
-i: identification -- This option used in connection with the -a
option will allow you to set the identification of the /ram
drive. The identification is the lower nybble of the device
number. The standard identification is 15.
